Service Changes from 20th July

[Sh4318]

@bususer12 surely if it still interwork with the 128 and 129 to save buses. I would imagine that some shorts would terminate it Blackheath. We don't even know if evening and Sunday services will be operating the full route to Dudley yet

If the 127 ran to Dudley on evenings and sundays. Loadings wouldn't be great but the money would already be in the vault and it would save Centro money paying for two vehicles on the 205 if it became one or the contract just ended, just a thought

The loadings on the 127 may be better than the loadings on the 205, afterall the current birmingham bound buses from dudley aren't quiet.

Hideous delays on all three to be expected then

Had a bit of a belated eureka moment yesterday about the 241 going to Merry Hill which is just daft to be perfectly honest. Why not extend the 99 to Merry Hill instead?

@Ashley I thought about extending the 99 ages ago but via the 002 route...

[Sh4318]

@the trainbasher @Ashley I wouldn't rule that out for next year's changes ::)

Liam, I know what you mean, it'll make more sense to be fair, but it'll be one beast of a route, mind. Remember, the buses are only small so you don't want too much patronage on this haha

You seem to be getting Ashley and Liam mixed up ;)

In @Liverpool Street's defence, their display pictures are similar!
