4804 left stourbridge 22 minutes down and operated a 9E to five ways which was then altered to a 9 to colmore row as the driver (me) pulled back the time departing colmore row at 18:30 instead of 18:22. 4808 was late from stourbridge but on time at quinon.

4808 was ahead with 4804 in hot pursuit when I saw them, with 4815 not far behind.

Looking at the NWM app whilst at a stop at Lye (was on 4804!) I know we had something about 2 minutes behind as well!

RTC also caused dead running buses on a lot of services 33s/997s/93*s/907s to try and get back on time. My bus was 20 minutes late coming, then 3 of us all the way up to Pheasey. Finally managed to get back on time 2 hours later

The 51s were also affected, quite a few of those also running in 2s

Yes. I waited for 30 minutes for X51. This was from 15:50 to 16:20. 4764 arrived and it was sooooo packed, even it had standees upstairs!

Read on the Birmingham Updates Facebook page that the Scott Arms lights are out. I would expect delays on buses there, especially at this time of day
