I don't normally do advance notice on transfers, but a word of warning

Anybody wanting photos or rides on 4700-7/10-17 better hurry up

No the 75 is being extended to Darlaston according to my copy of the list.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Yeah, from 24th July. I can see what @monkeyjoe is referring to. In this weeks email, the 4th September changes list the 75 as being withdrawn. Whether there is more to it, i wouldn't know. I'm just stating what it says.

Found it now @Nathan , that seems a bit stupid, surely it can't be correct?

4707 usefully took me home from Scott Arms on the 451 last week, it struck me that could be my last fling on one of the batch.
Don't you start.

I'll need to get a few rides as I've never rode on these before.

4054 was on the 703, which is extremely striking to see in New Invention!

From what I,ve read on west broms newsletter come September 75 service will be withdrawn due to reliability issues, the 79 service to west brom will be retimed and have frequency of every 10 mins, 74 will also be retimed to be every 10 mins to Dudley and every few minutes on soho rd.

979

4095 and 4097 currently parked up at WB could be transfers from YW with a few more plaxtons possibly to follow.

Fancy withdrawing a route that has just been extended, NE haven't given it chance to see whether the extension to Darlaston would improve the reliability issues?
