Is this a commercial service, or do TGB receive any subsidy from Centro?

My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

Commercially operated. Anyway it looks like the 1854 hasn't run (was hoping to get it before my 226!)

Edit - I stand corrected...it's just rolling into merry hill at 1859 so I don't think I'll risk it...especially as I've got a connection due in 15!

I figured that might be the case, didn't see why Centro would subsidise a route commercially covered by other operators.  ;)

Don't worry about it, I knew what you meant :). Misuse of exclamation marks on my part I think. I meant it in a "whoops!" kind of way.

Cannot be sure, but think 18:24 - it was my mother who saw it, not I. It could be the 17:54, though.

EDIT: my mother has now informed me it was on the FW7, so may not actually be on the 22!

203 is on the 22 all day today. Will do the 18:05 22E ex city to Halesowen (but is running a good 15 mins late!)

OH25

there was a TGB dart doing the rail replacement service this evening
