While at Walsall last week I was told every bus stop flag will be changed on Saturday night by an army of TFWM contractors, God did I laugh

2900

Seen some of the running boards for sept 12A/13/13A interworked,
13A (127) terminates blackheath
Some 12A/12E journeys start in Oldbury after coming off the 13 drop back very tight indeed  5 minutes, come Friday Saturday night could be an issue , hoping this will be rectified by sept
Fewer duties it seems so less buses could be.

Indeed.

Is Pensnett's allocation / overall work load expected to change much?

I don't know exact details but I've been told by drivers that a lot of Merry Hill drivers are to be moved to Dudley.

Would have thought they'd put the 3 and 3A on the same timetable
Also, those peak X10 journeys look interesting, wonder if anyone's gonna use it the whole way and spend 2 hours commuting from Gornal Wood to Brum
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

It appears both garages will share the 13A
I assume the 12 will have the hourly frequency during the evening
