Service levels over Christmas 2014

[Sh4318]

Do any NXWM buses get internal Christmas decorations? Some operations around the country allow one or two buses from a garage to be festooned with school children's christmas paintings and tinsel etc.

I remember when Thandi ran the 88, they put tinsel inside their buses, around the stop poles, literally all over the bus. I'll never forget the first time I saw it

To be fair, Yardley Wood usually make a good effort, last few years running now they have had a christmas bus (the driver of this scania was in full Santa costume).

Excellent!! I wonder if there'll be any this year?

Sounds like a good inter-garage competition opportunity to me, linking with community etc!!

I did ask NWM on Facebook earlier & they said the same.

They said they'd fix the website tomorrow.

Just had email from NE telling me that Sunday timetables are running on Boxing Day, surely that is very misleading! Then if you click on the link, it says "Sunday timetables will operate on services between 0700 and 2200 with some services operating til approximately 2300"

Only if you go to the timetable for your service do you learn the truth, i clicked on the 276, last departure from Dudley 18:15, hardly 22:00.

Indeed, quite a lot of services are actually similar to last year with many 1800-1900 finishes instead. An advert from NWM in the Express and Star tonight also advertising sunday services on nearly all routes on Boxing Day...
