Diamond West Midlands - Tividale

[Rachvince53]

The 326 seems to be on diversion, not serving Dudleys Fields, due to works taking place near to Bloxwich railway station, according to my nephew who lives right by the affected area.

The journeys are operating direct via Sneyd Lane instead.

Nothing online about it, it appears.

Nothing on Diamond or TfWM.  However one.network states the roadworks on Croxdene Avenue (junction improvements) will finish on 5th September 2023.

Why?

They are very slow buses in general so they will barely make it up the hills

They aren't they are fast off the mark, 32134 is the a very slow bus that has no power but the others aren't slow at all.

Most of them are bost extremely slow and are incapable of doing hills.

Driver of 20888 on the 18:58 from walsall and 20:13 from Hayley green needs to have a talking too. Failed to operate full route and running early at timing points. Good job nx run same time . @Simon Dunn

I don't remember them being slow at Claribels. I'd much rather them over a Streetlite.

I had a fast one on the 50 once but don't remember which one. All the others have been slow that I have ridden. Maybe i just got unlucky with drivers but for sure 32134 is the slowest one

32126 (YJ60 GJF) is a good one that thing is a missile I was training a driver on a route in Stratford last year and it was certainly shifting!

They as a whole are a good bunch, 32134 lets them down. The only one I've not caught is 32128.

Was walking up Dudley port about 17:10 this afternoon and an blue electric street deck demo bud was Turing left from Dudley port towards diamond garage , think it was the one NXWM had on loan before

Looking at Bustimes, I suspect, due to the weather, there's been another breakdown on the 326(twice in 2 days!), as 4 buses are tracking, 1 of which is parked in Bloxwich & another has been taken off the 57 & is doing the 1536 326 to Bloxwich.

The other 2 in service.

(Normally 3 buses at this time!)

[Westy]

2 326 Solos currently tracking on Bustimes.

The third, which Im on the 1536 journey from Bilston, isn't!

(Cant get the fleet number though, however if @Simon Dunn is looking in, re the PM I sent him, my Swiftcard has worked on this vehicle today, so I think the dud ticket machine theory I mentioned, is a definete in my opinion!)

3 x 002's pretty much running in convoy up Quarry Bank high street with only a few cars between including 30706, 40818 & 40820 ? approx 17.45

[Westy]

30925 on the Bloxwich corridor, ticketer machine OOA, no passes able to be scanned, plus its info screen is under the impression its 16th April mid morning around 1130am, when I left the vehicle!
