Just passed NK56 EPO at Barr Beacon...Definitely somewhere I didn't expect to see a Thandi vehicle!

Thandi now have 15 2003-2006 darts up for sale on a Facebook group starting from 3k each. Are these surplus or are they starting to wind down services?

God I hope not. The Darlaston corridor has been the first decent way of getting to work since I first started 30 odd years ago!

It will run from Birmingham to Smiths Wood. (Wonder what buses it will use)

Also, unrelated to the question, but I saw a Thandi bus earlier today  with a Stagecoach Megarider ad on the window. You'd think that they would have removed it when it was repainted but no.

Will it still go via shard end?

Yeah, I think. It's just the Erdington bit that's changed.

How do you have this info?

Some people were talking about it on the Rotala Q&A thread and someone said that Thandi were taking the 53 and extending it to Birmingham.

Well the Thandi's I catch still have Stagecoach stuff inside, even a (I assume) North East area radio station ad!

The Thandi running in Walsall and the Thandi which is actually Evergreen taking over the 53 are two separate unconnected companies
