Anyone else noticed that little white dart that's been running on the 72 recently.

More competition for that corridor after Claribels withdrew the 71A.

It displays Chelmsley Wood as 'Chelmseley Wood' ???, surprised that hasn't been amended yet

I saw it once back in October. They get decent loads, but I'm surprised they only run the one bus.

Give it a few months and there will be more, or another route, just like the rest of the related companies.

Hopefully they won't be another Sunny Travel! They hog the stand at Solihull until the next Sunny comes along!

No-one should be stop hogging in Solihull from today as the new AQPS rules have come in from yesterday. Anyone reported to the TC for breaking the new rules can have their service registrations cancelled

Forget emissions, I'm sure the white one is running around with no legal lettering. I couldn't see any on there today
