late running diamonds

226 running on Hansons time 1045 to Merry Hill  Wordsley Cat. No traffic and very few passengers on board.

It left merry hill 1108 back for Dudley...I think they've given up!

Blue Solo seen on 226 in Kford just, about 7 or 8 late. Hansons E200 infront, 7 or 8 early, just what the passenger wants ::)

I noticed this occurs with a certain few drivers more often than not.........private little wars I suppose

It's a while ago now but when Diamond worked the 37 to Solihull they often ran in pairs. This even happened on the half-hourly section between Olton and Solihull.

4hs running whenever they want
002 running whenever they want
And I think 142 is broken down somewhere

202 seems to be late majority of time. Yesterday it left halesowen at 40 past the hour instead of 25 past, hard to make up time on that route though. The worst thing was these two ladies were waiting for it, and the 4h came into space, so 202 pulled just in front of 4 blocking the entire road, while people went through the door and on the road to the 202. However they didn't see till it had dissapeared. Bad of driver in all honesty

4 002s in the matter of 5 minutes left Colley Gate towards merry hill about 7 minutes ago. 3 were branded Centro's and one was 30408

Is the 146 you're on very busy?

Nope - there were 4 including me from town, and 1 got on by the Nature Centre.  Don't know after Cotteridge where I bailed.  Other than a few journeys, I never see hardly anyone on it.  I see one coming through Cotteridge towards town around 6.50 every morning (one of the extra journeys from Sept) and the most I have seen on that journey was 5.  The only journeys that I have seen that carry any large loads are the ones through Cotteridge at 08:55 and 10:10 on a Saturday.  Got a free ride too as the driver just told us all to get on, was going to use my Swift card but saved £1.80 there!

4H 8:10 ex halesowen for Walsall departed at 8:45 and another two mins later, which was the 28 mins past. Traffic by lidl in halesowen was absolute nightmare
