On the subject of Nx not being able to control a Diamond bus, surely TfWm,as it was their idea for a joint service, ought to be supplying a member of staff to manage the route?

Nx have route managers for certain routes don't they, I seem to recall.

I love Walsall buses

They dont 'route manage' as such, do they?

Aint they there for enquires & fining operators who stay too long on a stand?

And put posters on stands due to the refurbishment

Ex Central vehicle on the 31 tonight.

Diamond drivers are supposed to accept Nx branded Daysavers arent they?

If so @Simon Dunn might be interested to know that the driver of the 31 that departed Walsall around 1645 wouldnt accept mine & my brother's DS's!

(For the record, one was a standard Nx bus ticket version, while the other was an Nx branded 'scratchcard' version!)

Yes - they should.  Did you get the fleet number?

Sorry I didnt.

(It was a non white driver though!)

We caught the Nx behind.

What's the reason for not all NX Walsall WMB vehicles to not have the 31/32 branding on?

(Think all Diamonds have the branding?)


No branding available currently, or is it something to do with the current repainting programme?

All diamond do have the branding I think once 2127 is done they will probably brand the ones which will not

With respect, that is why I said not all NX vehicles have the branding.

Noticed the 'little darlings' are already bored tonight, by hanging around the Derby Street stop & when the bus stops, prevent it from leaving by pressing the button!

Any news on any further joint routes? . Some time ago the WB40 was rumoured.
