1764 having 10 minutes on stand in Halesowen. Might want to check the early running @Tony. If it was diamond blocking the stand on the other hand no doubt you would all throw your dummies out the pram. Thought it was maximum 3 minutes on stand?

That bus did not leave any timing point early, he left Blackheath on time at 16:15 and arrived in Halesowen at 16:26 and departed at 16:36. That journey and the next one have an extra 8 minutes allowance which wasn't needed today.

Just read in a group on Facebook that 4128 (Y719 TOH) has been towed to a scrapyard today. :(  :'(

Surely should not be waiting on stand for 10 minutes??

Also received a service 997 "stand in" livery which I think was unique to this bus, here are some pictures showing most of the liveries that it once carried:

Missing vinyls have now started to be reapplied to Walsall's Platinum's. I noticed earlier that 6725 has finally had it's halo reapplied after about a year and a half without it...

They better do 6741. That one is terrible, missing so much branding. 6735? I think it's that the one that's missing Branding on its nearside panel.

More drivers route learning the X51?

Two sitting at the front by the driver on 6724 this morning.

Second time this week for a red & white on the Cannock X51.
