The Green Bus

[Trident 4609]

I think they accept N bus on the 50/A and public services but not on School services

[fleetline6477]

Green Bus certainly accept nbus on their local bus services. I used mine many times on the 558 and a few times on 50/A including 2 Saturdays ago. I cannot say about school services.

Wonder if Swift works on school services

[nitromatt1]

nBus/nNetwork is only valid on the 50 and 50A between Birmingham and Maypole. You cannot use nBus/nNetwork on school services but is it not worth paying £1.50 for a ride on a soon-to-be-withdrawn Metrobus?

I'm pretty sure Swift would be accepted on school services, but never noticed it as very few people seem to have it

[nitromatt1]

464 is going for scrap.

I don't think it was ever posted on here, but Lance 206 was scrapped about 2 months ago

Except Swift cards reduce the fare to £1.30 (and 65p for a child)

Oh what a shame, I used to love travelling on that bus, it was an absolute flyer! And one of the first buses I think Ian Mack purchased

I think it's getting a major reworking

[John]

I can not see them pulling off the 50, they go get good loads. Wonder what will happen in terms of changes

[Ashley 4569]

Ive used the 50 alot the past two years for various reasons, i could never find much difference between TGB and NXWM other than TGB have much nicer drivers and the variety of tridents that aPpear on the route isnt something id ever moan about
