2129 Wmb liveried on the 11/11a.

(Not sure what you would class that as?)

Edit : Someone flagged it as a 'Noteworthy Working' later!

All WM bus liveried off route are noteworthy

11 / 11a Walsall to Dudley - Every 10 mins Monday to Saturday daytime!

Please dont tempt me into engaging sarcasm mode.

You wouldnt like it when Im sarcastic!

Between 2009 and 2011 service 311/313 ran quite well reliable there was an extra bus in the system.

01hr50 round trip daytime.
02hr peak
If was late could always catch up.
Then to save a bus journey time cut down to 43 mins 7 mins standing and now constantly late.

01h40 daytime
01h50 peak

Someone's answered the question on that Flickr post anyway, but according to previous posts from the Wolverhampton open day of a few years ago, it appears certain depots will have displays for certain other depot routes for 'emergency' use, so Walsall should have 529, plus I guess Wolves will have 89 in return(does that mean Wolves has Walsall 8 displays as well?).

Does that mean Wb should have the Walsall 4 group on their displays too?

Maybe another discussion?

BC PB and BY share a database as well.
PN and WB did but don't anymore following the September 2nd changes.
YW and AG buses can display route numbers from both garages.
It was mentioned that BY/PB/BC buses can display each other's route numbers as well  and also that PN and WB used to be the same as well, but they are both now seperate.
In the past i've seen drivers on the AG 11 put up the YW 2 and 3 on the displays.

While we're on the topic of blinds, 2113 was still displaying 301 yesterday. Surely all of the old numbers should have been removed by now?

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

Not sure if this is noteworthy but 2113/2115/2119 was on the 29 today

Both the AM & PM 700's are on 89 boards. There is a second bus in the morning (not sure on afternoon) that is standalone.

701 in the morning runs private from St Thomas Moore to Mossley and does a round trip on the 31. The afternoon one goes onto the 31 as well.
