PD0001124/34 - HANSONS (WORDSLEY) LTD, 60A HAYES LANE, STOURBRIDGE, DY9 8RD
    Variation Accepted: Operating between Merry Hill and Harbourne given service number 004 effective from 09-Jun-2014. To amend Timetable.

That'll probably be what Jon was describing above. In response to the 22 perhaps (matching their Merry Hill - Harborne frequency)?

The 004 frequency increase is due to Hanson's withdrawing the X26 & redeploying the buses elsewhere

You both right and on the 22 if i am wright its ever hour mon to fri day time and more peak time ( i could be wrong)

Half hourly during the day and more frequent at peaks mate.

Thanks for that matt i was not 100% on the timetable

1524 was seen earlier on the anticlockwise 226/X26 in the green/blue/white

[PM]

Loading piecing up significantly on the x26

Is it? How do you know? I would doubt it seeing as it is being withdrawn!!

[PM]

Before it had about 10 people on when was this withdrawn ?

Ey?!

The X26 in London has brilliant loadings, but the Hansons X26s i have seen this week were all nearly empty.

You said it is being withdrawn

Excuse me but I have been informed by a very reliable source within Hansons that that is not the case. Anyway it would be on VOSA would it not?

So where are the buses coming from for the frequency increase on the 004?

3. Are there any plans in the immediate future to buy any new buses whilst Euro 5 is still available?

3. Not on the radar for new buses but another addition shortly.

[PM]

Is another addition going to be enough to double the 004 frequency. Excuse me but I think not.

I am sure someone mentioned its withdrawal which seems logical as it hardly seems a successful route.

The X26 is going in june (not paying) then the 2 extra buses is going on the 004 to make it 30 min's service

This was the original post!

Trainbasher has a valid point, a registration cancelling the X26 has never/not yet appeared on VOSA.

As mentioned in the other thread, Hansons have now got KX06LXO ex Htl/Stanley travel, new to Thames Travel
