Quote from: PB50 on January 06, 2025, 02:53:31 PMI wouldn't have thought that was the only reason because they only use up to 4 buses on the 6 service.
The 6 actually has 8 running boards plus several 10 boards also have 6 workings on it. 

On Saturday there are 2 6 boards plus a 78 board.

Oh I see. Obviously over Christmas they didn't need to use double deckers on the Bloxwich routes. Must admit though 29 service is normally an E200 bus so I wouldn't have thought they would need to use many double deckers on that route. Will look tomorrow to see how many are out on those routes again.

Does WA operate all of the 4H services now? Or are there still shorts in Halesowen operated by PN? Also why does this service not track on bus times in the day?

NX Don't run the 4H during the Day, Diamond run it, Diamond also run a few journeys on the 4 but NX mostly operate the 4 Blackheath/West Brom and 4M Merry Hill, NX do run the Evening shorts from PN between Halesowen and Hayley Green

The new stop for the 907/33/51/X51 Opposite the Square Peg is going to a big problem judging by last night. There is an unloading stop for the 934 etc which is fine but Walsall drivers just sit there with Not In Service on the front, there's not enough room. There was 4 buses at 1640 yesterday. They need to be told to move away as soon as they have unloaded.

It's all confusing, plenty of passengers trying to board the limited stop services there when they actually load up on Albert Street. Not sure why they just have their set down on Albert Street as that is a massive bay for them.

Drivers seem to be confused too, the 33's keep on picking up on Albert Street as well. Not sure why both services can't use both stops.

Looks like the 6 service has gone back to normal route as double decker are back on it.
