Anyone notice the total bullcrap in today's online Express and Star about GRS. Talk about inaccurate!


Apart from saying he's is restricted to 'one service' when that should be 'one vehicle' what is inaccurate?

The only other thing I could find is he continues to operate the 11A/C and he has previously operated services in Wednesbury and where the company is based.

The 11A/11C operated by GRS will be withdrawn from 26/08/15. So there is no point in commenting on the services anymore, unless your commenting on the private hire section of the operator.

Wrong...they ended at the end of July...Centro website is wrong...as usual!

I don't think the Centro website is wrong as it is normally up-to date. So I think your wrong.

GRS are no longer on the 11. I'm an 11 driver, in fact I'm having my drop back in Perry Barr as I type...

When did you withdraw the 11 the to clear the date up as the Centro website says it will be withdrawn from 26/08/15 and the trainbasher on this forum says it was end of July?
GRS were supposed to finish on the 13/07/15 wich was on vosa but GRS carried on operating the service to the 31/07/2015. GRS have already put there darts up for sale and have offered them to Sunny Travel who chose not to buy any the only 2 worth buying are X604 OKH and X604 OKH witch for these he wants more than he got them, the others are not even worth there scrap value, if you don't believe me stand in Acocks Green, Erdington, or at the Fox and Goose there will be no sign of GRS only Social Travel and NXWM who currently operate the service why should people on here not comment if they find what is currently going on of interest to them I live on the route and use the service and the last time I saw them was the 30/07/15 though the timetable for GRS is still up on the bus stops. @KarlX96 .

The registration was due to finish half way through August.  However the tc has banned them from stage carriage work as of 1st August.  So that's when the service must be withdrawn no matter what anyone else says to the contrary.
I would disagree that the 2 x regs are worth buying  the chassis are not in a good state at all. If anything the 2 t reg Marshall are a more viable option.  We ain't gonna buy em though we've moved on to better things

Do you think the other one up for sale P202 OLX would be worth buying. How likely do you think it is they will sell any of the 5.

Who used to programme the destination blinds for GRS?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

How can they claim them to be in "Good Condition" If they think they are good, they're blind!

Steveminor

P202 was not in a good way at AMPM.  It's hard to see it being a worthwhile purchase now. Even if GRS had done a lot of work to it & a lot of maintenance ( ha ha ). Then vehicles only deteriorate with age.

The fine has already been paid - but thank you for your concern. And I'm glad you can make fun out of someone's livelihood. Dickhead.

Just seen that comment bus he is not selling them to pay the fine. He is selling them because he has been restricted to 1 veichle and private hires. Has anyone read what he has wrote about the Express and Star.

I think Mr Ram or whomever is on the end of there Facebook Page don't care anymore!
Surely, as some employers check Facebook Profiles etc... This won't help his next job out at "Diamond" as quoted by Jason.
