Following the Dudley service changes does WB still operate a peak morning board on the former 140 / 241 routes, now 14 and X8?

Yes, on the X8. Running board 74/10 starts at Bearwood at 06:30 towards Wolverhampton; arrives there at 07:36. It departs on the 07:43 X8 from Wolverhampton, arriving in Birmingham (Colmore Row) at 09:29, then goes onto the Soho Rd for the rest of the day.

Anybody know why?

Update:
The 23:38 80 has disappeared off the bus stop too!

used to but not now.
an empty bus is a happy driver.

There is a car accident in Cape Hill so I'd expect the 80/80A and 82/87/89 to all be affected from now.

Two WB 42**s not in service at the inbound and outbound stops by University Station. Not sure if they're broken down or not but that was a strange sight.

One broken down and the other the change bus / engineers?

Travelled on 4927 on the 12A today. What a great bus. Fast, fairly smooth. I'm sure there not all as good as that mind. Really enjoyed the route and bus

4927 was one of the better ones, just seemed to be a bit faster

It had around 30,000 miles less than the others from its time off the road when we had it

It was a rocket today between Oldbury and bearwood, then the driver must have been running early as he eased off a bit
