Quickest route to Dudley

[Busboy105]

Just out of interest, which of the following routes gets to Dudley quickest:
12/12A,74,87,126 or the X8?

[Jack6101]

Either the 126 or x8

[Busboy105]

Ok thanks

You'd be better with the X8 as it runs express along Hagley Road whereas the 126 serves every stop.

[Busboy105]

But doesn't the X8 go through the old 140 route? How long was it?

I've lost count of the ammount of times I've beaten an X8 to Dudley when on a 126 leaving city or Dudley at the same time.

The 140 took 40 mins to Dudley but it stopped at every stop on Hagley Road.

From Traveline, on a Sat morning the X8 is timetabled for 44 mins, the 126 is timetabled for 46 mins so very little difference really.
