Will there be extra journeys offered on the 2 between Wolverhampton Bus Station and the garage on the open day?  AG ones in years passed used to have relief's on the 1 with a Rover ticket, but with normal services with usual ticket availability operating for the non bus enthusiast.

Last year we had just normal services with normal tickets although this year may be different...

I would like to see the inside of the garage but oh well ! I'll try my best to come, I can finally meet some fellow enthusiasts.

Not sure if they will do it this year but we did tours round the depot.

Also confirmed today is Signal 107 radio.
Autofare 3 - the ticket that laughs in the face of contactless!

Should still all be on - no doubt an Enviro 400 MMC will make its way there, and wouldn't surprise me if a Enviro 200 MMC from AG went up there as well really - I hope so  ;) NX will want to showcase their latest stuff. I know they had a Scania bendi last year and a B6 and Merc; perhaps a B6 will be there again this year.

I know a e400 mmc stands a very good chance of being there 😉

In the process of organising a Borismater.

I have indeed been informed of the presence of an MMC and the possibility of a NB4L. 4001 will very likely be withdrawn by the time the Open Day comes but I do hope it is on display (As per last year). The oldest Decker against one of the newest!

it is a shame midland metro could not have a open day and have towing cars 272-t2 and bush 631 make an appearance.

Nice if bc and ag send new buses as well let's hope more effort is made from preserved buses and stall holders

The Open Day Day is on Sunday 21st June 2015. Last year there was no entrance fee but donations are welcome (money goes to charity)

In response to 861/2, 862 is off the road with accident damage. Currently at Carlyle Bus & Coach in Great Bridge being repaired.
