111 broke down today on school run

Which route was this?
spotted in Stirchley by the Co-Op Border

I have no idea what it was doing there then, none of the school services serve that area as far as I know

Ignore that, I was thinking of the Stirchley in Telford! Think it may have been on the FW4

Stuharris 6360

See from the Green Bus website that they running six services from King Edward VI college in Stourbridge from September.

As the buses are timetabled to arrive at Stourbridge at 08:30 and depart at 16:10, wonder what they will do for the rest of the day, Green Bus on the 246 perhaps?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Without wishing to reveal too much, that is a possibility, though not necessarily how you'd expect

Two questions

Anybody know how long GB have been running a School Service in Liverpool?

Anybody know any details about a Metrobus Running Day on 558? I hope it'll be a Saturday, even though they no longer run on Saturdays.

The school service in Liverpool has only just begun. Some of the ex. Abellio Tridents (I think 3) were sent up there a few weeks ago

Also, you beat me to posting about the Metrobus running day! I don't know the date, but I do know there will be at least one ex. TWM Metrobus - most likely 313 as 989 is poorly lol

I don't think I can say. But having said that, recently heard its condition may not be as bad as I first thought, may not be the end of 2989 quite yet after all

I agree! Personally I've always preferred 3013 but yes, 2989 is a great bus

Yes this was announced a fair few weeks ago. The 558 is also being cancelled.
