6741 on WA 51.

@P419 EJW that was on an X51 board which is booked to do the 15:47 51 from Walsall to Birmingham. The King Edwards school run has now changed to a 51 journey from today. So the morning and afternoon trips both operate as 51. This means there's another 51 board that does an X51 at 07:25 from Walsall and the peak X51 board now does the 788 and 15:47 51 into Birmingham. The King Edwards journey is now on the 07:15 51 from Walsall and goes onto the 16:45 51 from Birmingham in the afternoon.

I saw a 51 today with a Platinum bus. It was going from Walsall, would have been about half 3. & somebody mentioned the 10A, it's quite a long journey at peak times it would be nice for it to be Platinum full-time.

@l.murphy123 That was probably 6741 on the 788. It arrived into Walsall at around 15:30. There were no Platinum's on the 51 today from what I saw when I was in Walsall earlier.

The little darlings are bored near me, so they decided to throw a brick at the Plattie doing the first Brum to Cannock tonight from the railway bridge on Green Lane in Leamore!

Thank god for safety glass.

No thanks to safety glass bricks will go straight through that leaving thousands of little  cubes that can fly into people's eyes.

NXWM  put a very strong plastic coating on the inside of all glass which is what protects people from these morons

@Westy Sounds like that board had a very unlucky run...Apparently the vehicle that was on it broke down in Bloxwich after doing the 868 school. I think 6727 replaced it if I remember correctly, as I saw that pass through Walsall on a Cannock run.

Didnt the old 52 get run by Walsall at some point?

[Westy]

Looks like the 659 11a from Walsall to Dudley didnt run this morning, as the 709 11 had its passengers as well as its own, plus some of the passengers who would normally catch the 719 11a  caught it as well, so we had a well full single decker with standing passengers all the way to Wednesbury Parkway, possibly the whole route.

But another 2 weeks or so, I'm transferring back to our Willenhall depot, to start a new role in our warehouse, so I'll be catching the 326 instead!

Yes. About 15 years ago.

I heard the rumour last week and I do actually believe it
