Hi-Ride

[John]

If there was an accident, it was the Stagecoach liveried Dart as the green Y-FJN dart was out yesterday

[Solo1]

On network West midlands site it has a dress of hi ride as 316 bearwood rd the old bearwood coaches address  in thought he was based in hook rd &depot on an industrial estate in Handsworth

No he is based at his own house. Where his back garden is where he stores his buses - remember the DVSA weren't pleased about that as they did not believe he could do his inspections properly due to how it was. Have a look at Google Street View. You'd be surprised, very self-sufficient, but maybe too self sufficient.

That must be one of the few registration plates not obscured by Google

You can find the old time table here, I'm sure you'll notice a few things that are different.

When did the 40X start going to Bearwood again?

3 July but on the timetable when does he take a break for lunch

[Stu]

When did the 40X start going to Bearwood again?

I can't keep up with his route changes! It's basically the 11 between Bearwood and Perry Barr, but going up to One Stop. May as well just renumber it 11E!

My question is after problems with the TC why not employ one more driver I mean and a engender who has a degree and buy a small garage is that to much to ask from Hi Ride
