old 559/560/562/568/570

[Trident 4609]

I found a old timetable from 26th october 2003 for services 559/560.

it also says about the 562/568/570.

it says on the back that 562 was operated by Wolverhampton garage and the 568 and 570 was operated by walsall garage.

if anyone can help me with these questions i'm asking.

-i know that the 568 went to wolverhamton and operated evening and sundays so did the 570 transfer to wolverhampton? and if so does anyone know what vehicles the 570 used?Because i know the 568 used tridents.

- when the 568 and 570 were at walsall what vehicles did they use?

- I remember the 562 a few years back operated by diamond and operated early morning,evenings and sundays. When operated by travel west midlands does any one know which vehicles WN used? I'm was just curious because i was sorting through all of my bus timetables and i found this one for the 559/560

Years and years ago im sure Chase bus services ran a 562 between Wolverhampton & Brownhills via New Cross, im talking early 90s tho

TWM had 562 for a short while before diamond was usually a trident on sundays and optare mon-sat evenings dire running times the 570 was at WN too was on the 568 board on Sunday and was on a 560 board for the other journeys tridents were used too as all were on wednesfield rota branded and non branded were used

Did they use the 559/560 branded tridents on there? there is a picture of 4603 on the 568 back in 2009. I remember the 568 ran up untll may 2010 when the 908(now 89) replaced the 560 and then on a sunday there was a 528E service using tridents.

So because it said on the timetable that back then the 568 and 570 were operated by WA , did WA operate tridents on the 568 and 570 because WN did.

At one point the 559,560,568 and 570 were all at WN i think in 2009.

How many times has the 560 been at Wolverhampton garage. There was a time in 2000/early 2000's then the last time was in 2009 using Excels and tridents. I'm sure the 560 was at wolverhampton in the mid 2000's (2005/2006?) because i remember on saturdays they put the 4535-4609 transbus tridents on there

Walsall like Wolverhampton used tridents lost count how many times the 560 was at wolverhampton it seemed it was always going from one to another but since the review and number changes apart from 59 (559) a lot of Walsall are running around the wednesfield area and with the old 560 section I think gonig to stay at WA now its the 89

They also tranfered the 559/560 branded tridents alot between WA and WN

Not really a lot, just 4168-4171 transferred to Walsall along with the 560 route in May 2002, and back to Wolverhampton in October 2004 when the 560 route went back to WN. No other buses transferred with branding on

yes could never remember if they were wn or wa based I think eventually it was taken off or some just went when they were refurbed
