Yes it used as the spare bus on the 318 most of the time it spends most of the day parked up in the Layover bays on Birmingham Street round the corner from Stourbridge bus station.

Hanson's did a few years ago doing two return trips to merry hill plus a short to Stourbridge on Saturday and Sunday only.

They ran direct merry hill to Stourbridge down the 228 route, then via the Norton Estate and Norton Road down Kidderminster.

Yes that's right. Unlike the 125 it ran via Kidderminster Station.

Can't remember whether Hansons 252 or the 125 extension came first.

252 came first followed by the 125 extension, bringing a 10 year gap of No direct stourbridge to Kidderminster bus to a end (thanks to First cutting that link)
