Is there any reason why the 301 is the chosen route?

Only reason I can see is if one does fail, it isn't far from the depot!

It needs to be a 'frequent registration' short route so that a fresh registration to VOSA isn't required and buses don't disappear for ages leaving people waiting at one end of the route for ages waiting for them to return

Vosa have obviously not waited on that corridor between 5 & 530 at night in the past then ! LOL

Bet Tony will drive the Spectra on the 11:00 X51 from City!
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Think it's just a Service Extra, but you don't have to catch it. Catch anything to Walsall, but this journey will probably be Spectra operated.

I'm hoping 4105 will "accidentally" end up on the 301 too, just to really give us spotters a choice of Euro 2 variety to froth over :D

Seeing as WA park their buses outside, I'm surmising we'll get to have a look at some of their buses albeit behind some kind of barrier

I hope not that would just spoil the day, you go there for a last day of solid Euro 2 and a bloody hybrid turns up?!

Westy

Lets hope none of that day's 302's go missing, else they'll be moaning on Lower Farm!
