I'm not knowledgeable on Trains but getting into Wolverhampton for 7:25 when I live Stechford seems awfully long and tiring

I'm thinking of the Arriva service 1

Or Train

Or X51 to Walsall then number 1

Or 936/56 to Brownhills then 33

Sorry @Tony but he didn't specify if he can use arriva ect. so just used the NX option

He didn't specify NX only either, so why send him probably the longest route

Just at that point the only route that sprung to mind, I apologise for not knowing all routes to Cannock.

A lot quicker than catching 2/3 buses
Class 153, 155 and 156. The Super Sprinters
"Around the corner" routes: 21, 89
Local routes: 12/A, 48/A
Semi-local routes: 54, 80, 87

Most used routes in bold

It goes from a stop outside the job centre, virtually opposite where the buses go into the main part of the bus station

You would need to be on the 07:10 X51 from Birmingham to Walsall to properly connect with the 08:08 1 to Cannock, the next X51 from Birmingham only arrives 3 mins before the 1 leaves which might not be enough to get to Hatherton Road, and the next 1 doesn't get to Cannock till after 9.  Or, just get the 08:07 train from New Street to Cannock arriving 08:43...

Try Traveline west midlands. Put in Stechford to Cannock arrive by 9 and you get the 14, the Outer Circle and other routes you'd never think of. Good entertainment when there's not much on telly!

I remember doing that trying to find the best route from Bloxwich to Great Bridge by bus.

It came up with changing at Stone Cross I seem to recall.

Wonder why it did that?

Other Walsall Tony

I found myself on 6733 on the X51 today and could not stop myself whistling Banjo Patterson's greatest hit!  (Work it out...)
