Never travelled to Telford or Shrewsbury or Stratford routes or Worcester?

Must give the National Express 147, 550/1, 362-4, 247 and 350 a try. Oh, and the 192 as well.

National Express West Midlands 257.

National Express West Midlands 257.

The 257 is as scenic as a public convenience.

Depends on which public lavatory :)

Unless the OP meant the 256 (Plus the 255). A route I enjoy every Saturday Evening.

I like the 891 (Soon to be 8/A). Scenic and fast running on Pulsars.

Another good route is the X70 (Shrewsbury - Oswestry). I had ex Cannock Pulsar 3728 on there once and despite the diversions through the houses there are some fast, countryside stretches.

The 890 Is a nice route too. Quite a busy route and leaves Wolverhampton full in the mornings and the same in the afternoon at Bridgnorth. Bridgnorth is a very nice place to visit. Again, Scenic stretches and thrash.

The 255 and 256 are nice runs though. The 257 goes through Gornal, no further explanation needed lol.

Two suggestions for the Stratford area: -

• Johnsons X20 Birmingham - Stratford (mainly double deck), then either 269/270 Stratford - Banbury or 21/22 Stratford - Moreton-in-Marsh.  Out and back easily possible in a day although perhaps a little pricey.  A day pass is £10 adult or £7 child.


• Stagecoach Coventry - Stratford: out on X16, back on X15/X18 or vice versa.  If you get a Dayrider Gold, carry on from Stratford to Evesham and back on the 28/28A.  Normally double deck.

I've been through the full route, it goes through some countryside, I was quite surprised with the route it took as I expected it to go through the main roads.

EDIT: Sorry, my mistake, it was the 256, went through Wombourne and in to the countryside and in to Wolverhampton via the A449.

Its still a hard one to call because we've all got our own ideas regarding what we think of as a scenic route. We've all discussed NXWM's current offerings to this category a few times.

[Other Walsall Tony]

Yarrantoms 758 Worcester to Tenbury & R&Gs 291 from Tenbury to Kiddie.

Roberts 7 from Ashby to Nunneaton.

Arriva 114 Bridgnorth to Telford and 297 Bridgnorth to Kiddie.

All the above infrequent.

Central 125, especially between Bewdley and Bridgnorth.

Select 877/878 wolverhampton to Stafford.

Is the arriva 10 between wolves and perton nice?
