guess its good to seem them expanding
maybe some new buses too
means now the 75 has 3 operators , 16 has 3 operators too! :L

Will they do the 600 along with Blue Diamond or is there service withdrawn, remember Central Buses tried the 600 before and didnt last long. Even still, good to see a bit of compotition.

75E from Wednesbury to Birmingham? Surely that's just a normal 75?

JackC

Sounds like good reasoning to me.

I wonder whether they will simply run 75E as placement journeys from depot in Wednesbury down to Birmingham to pick up the 16 and 600. Since operations began the fleet has become low floor Darts and a standard fleet livery and names is being applied to buses. There does however seem to be a very high turnover of drivers.

Are there any links with VIP as GRS buses are often seen parked outside VIP depot, they have the same livery?

Does anybody know the times they run on the 600, live near the route and have never seen one on it.

Try looking around 20 minutes in front of the Connect service - that's if it hasn't got 'lost' again!
