reece i think its a permanent swap for 30938 for 31/32 along with 30940-30943 obvouisly be painted first :) :)
So the 4H is losing two branded buses - 30942/3. Does this mean the value brandeds be branded instead?

1) yes
2) most are already branded anyway- expect newish buses soon

Cedric, you know they're not worked from Kidderminster, it is in reference to KR losing 30938 for those services.

So you are seriously thinking KR would operate two routes in Walsall?

What is with all this threatening to cancel services in Kidderminster if patronage doesn't increase? The 2 and 10 by the looks of it have been threatened with cancellation from 28th September unless patronage increases. The 2 I rode on today an mpd would have been suitable.

The 192 is another route which has seen a major decline in passenger numbers. Back in the day of central connect the bus was full all the time in a morning, however now a few OAP join and nothing more?

The 125 is a very good route for loadings so it seems, and the 3 too seems a profitable route based on viewings.

As far I  can make out at the moment  it is only the 2/2A that I under threat by septmeber 28th , the 10   is under review  for a bit longer along with a couple of other routes . one think I have noticed with the 2 current timetable a 125 leaves only a few minutes before a 2  but with the 2 going around habberly  the 125 gets to bewdley more the 5 minutes before  the 2  so  people who just want bewdley town or anywhere along the main road    use the 125 as it's quicker
