Does this make sense to anyone on the current snow updates page, regarding the 45, because it doesn't to me, knowing the route in the past?

45 | Walsall to West Bromwich unable to serve Charlemont Estate.


45 | West Bromwich to Walsall unable to serve Charlemont Estate and Yew Tree, buses will terminate at Stone Cross, unable to serve Milton Street.


I have tried to point it out to the FB people, but I don't think they understand.

They've modified it now, but is it now saying it cannot serve West Bromwich?

Why have you put it in this thread? The 45 is a Walsall route...

The same website also says the 126 is operated out of Walsall..

The 45 route transferred to Walsall in October 2019, with some journeys operated by West Bromwich - though I'm not sure if that's still the case (still, not wholly inaccurate)

Thanks @CL

I will let the people know that the website is incorrect.... are there anyother routes that are wrong?

Gets confusing, this does!

@Westy Speaking of confusing.. ;)

West Bromwich now runs the 'Perry Barr/Hamstead' 54/54A as well - in addition to routes under the same numbers that operate between West Bromwich/Quinton

@Bus Man K2 Both are still listed as Perry Barr routes. If I manage to find any more anomalies, I'll PM you to save clogging a thread. :)

The E40Ds at NXWM have the facelifted headlights and bumpers, whereas the Trident ones have the older style. However, they can be changed over, at least with the bumpers, and certain operators such as Stagecoach specced their later ones with the pre-facelift fronts.

Any views/comments are my own and do not reflect those of my employer.

The E400 tridents have twin tree deflectors and the upper salon emergency exit as openable.

The E40Ds have a singular tree deflector and the upper salon emergency exit is break glass.

At the moment, at WB, all of the E400 tridents are in crimson and the E40Ds in red and white
