Just to start a thread for Worcester/Hereford related discussion - @Liverpool Street can it be stickied?




I saw an Enviro300 heading up the A456 through Hagley this morning, turned left at the lights onto the A491 towards Stourbridge. Anything to do with the potential upcoming changes, or just heading to the same place as that Dart I saw a few weeks ago?

I was expecting just 144A, but I like 147. I'm sure it'll make a big break.

Duh-dum.

I'm guessing I won't be able to buy the Wyvern day ticket on the 147 in Halesowen, as that part of the route is subsidised, isn't it?

@Matt I think you might but connecta bounday on the 007 is the first village out of halesowen

It's actually the first bus stop on Grange Hill, by the junction with Illey Lane, it's closer to my house than the bus station

This service might be wholly commercial. In June on another forum http://www.railforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=97560&page=7 it was said that First planned to do this, and when the results of the tenders were published this service wasn't included. Certainly First have made the Malvern/Upton services commercial including the extension to Tewkesbury, so it wouldn't be totally surprising for First to take this approach on the Halesowen link.
