5 301s running together towards Walsall about 15 minutes ago.
Firstly a Diamond Eclipse, Diamond Centro then 3 NXWM Scania.

Does the Mossley require that level of service anyway?

Why not turn short at Bloxwich or balance the service by sending some to Lower Farm instead?

The RTC by the Boars Head also caused delays on the 33. Various buses running special and also others running together

Something seemed up with the Sutton Services that use Jockey Road this afternoon.

2 907 came in at one, and one (4697) left NIS

2 77s came in together (4137 came in NIS, and parked up for around 15 mins), the other one that came in with 4137 was running late

The 66A at 2.50 never turned up (1843), and the other (1867) turned up late as well, so there was no 66A for over an hour

The 5 also did not seem to be running to time, as there was various gaps between buses, the largest one been around 20 minutes, and the bus that did come left completely full (This might have something to do with 4293 broken down at New Oscott though, causing a bus to be missing)

Just seen two 27 following each other towards Hawkesley in Bournville.

that might have been something to do with people finishing for Easter and the new Aldi opening at New Oscott. new supermarket, heavy traffic causing surrounding roads to suffer.
an empty bus is a happy driver.

On Sunday, I missed the 2140 126 from moor street by inches, on the display the next one was 29 mins away, it then just disappeared of the screen with one then turning up at 2220. Not the most enjoyable thing when I've just finished a 12 hour shift.
Wouldnt mind a 10 min bus service....
