NXWM Changes 24/07/16

[BU07 LGO]

Was suppost to be the 39. Don't believe it's changed.

On another note, can someone please confirm if the 301 and 302 route number is changing? Because the registation was put through but no word on it on NX or NWM websites, nor on the document in Wolverhampton bus station. @Tony can you shed any light on the matter please?

31 is on the destination have t tried 32?

Hmmm intresting. I was told by a friend that the '9' was on the destination, when they proposed the renumbering.

Yeah 9 is too!

A driver friend only found out about the 9 by mistake by changing the 89 to 8 and he pressed one more time so it went to 9 and it worked. Apparently it was in the proposed changes that the 89 would be 9. Glad they kept the 89 as it is.

So..... the X10 was successful today😉

Apart from the fact City Hop doesn't work

Did you get many people asking where the 141 was?  ;)

None, the huge number of passengers I dragged off colmore row onto my bus seem impressed with it though with some even commenting they could walk the extra distance between stops (they had been waiting around 40 mins for a 9 though)

Meanwhile on the WA 4 I had a passenger habe ago because the timetable wasn't changed, they wanted 4M and I was only a 4 but it was my fault supposedly lol

Typical. Suppose they expected you to spend all night going round every stop on the 4 changing timetables and then safely drive a bus the following day. Sometimes wonder if people engage there brain before talking?

The best was last week, a bloke wanted me to follow the 127 so je could catch it to Dudley, try telling him I don't same way, all I got in response was "oh your just a bus driver, not very clever"..... There's some lovely folks out there lol

[Westy]

So is that 34 / 37 / 39 leaflet correct or not?

(Mind you it changes again in September doesn't it? Didn't seem worth changing just for a couple of months surely?)

Well apparently its my fault that the sticker in window by doors doesn't advertise nbus tickets. I said "its not my job to design the stickers and put them on!"

Can someone please explain to me (without stating "operational reasons") why the 77 has transferred to Perry Barr garage when the buses start and finish at the Walsall end. Dead mileage is increased surely !!

The 311 by NX and 313 are being changed to 11 and 13 now 11 would be confusing because of the Birmingham 11. Also WA 41 and 69 to run different route. As for the WA 39 and WV79 they will interwork now 39 goes via Manor Hospital and WA38 is now scrapped.
