Other Diamond 82 from one I'm on has failed in Holyhead Road! Presumably awaiting someone from Redditch. Passenger said "At least the drivers smile unlike the miserable ones on the 900". To which another passenger replied National Express drivers aren't allowed to smile.

It depends on the driver I suppose, I took the X51 from Walsall yesterday and driver was suited and booted and smiled at passengers as they boarded the bus. He might actually just enjoy the job. That or he got laid last night.
