Rumour mill in full swing at west brom and pensnett

120A to terminate in Oldbury as 120E did as before
127 between blackheath and Dudley to be rerouted using 140 route
140 to become express route
241 will cover the old 205/127/88  route from Dudley to blackheath
289 frequency to be increased to deal with rowley and lion farm estate
The new X87 will interworked with the new  express 140 service

I must stress this is all driver gossip and hearsay not concrete in any shape or form

If there is an express 140 then it will probably be an X11 to run alongside the X10

Any gossip about new or cascaded vehicles with all of this?

Anyone know if this be seen online please ? ( haven't got paper tonight )

Rumours amongst drivers is that 126 will cease and become an X7 or X8 taking on the 140 from Dudley and part of 289 / 87 as another route proposal ?

Confirmed date for the changes is 2nd September. Information to be out in August.

Lees time than the South Brum network. And while a fair number of people won't be at work/school to really find out. Nice

That was taken from the NX website. Really should be giving more time tbh.
