Quote from: ellspurs on July 31, 2023, 06:09:23 PMThat route is showing as running every 30 minutes to Pattingham at the moment during the day (as a 10A, missing out the two hourly time when it did the 10B journey) which I was surprised at, as I thought it only went to Pattingham every two hours. The registration on the 10/10A/10B does state 10B is being withdrawn, so (speculatively) either those journeys will just become 10A journeys, or they'll have a mix up between the 10/10A.

Probably explains why I've always seen a 10A at its Pattingham terminus when I've had to go there.
10A is two hourly, its the common part of 10/10A/10B between Wolverhampton and Perton which is half hourly.   :huh:

10A is half hourly except where the 10B runs. Not every 2 hours.

Yes you are correct, I was wrong. The last time I checked the 10A WAS 2 hourly. I personally don't know why it was increased unless its to avoid excess layover time at Sainsbury's Perton.  Will a Saturday service be reinstated on the 10A I wonder?

Quote from: Stu on July 31, 2023, 07:31:17 AMAs for closing of depots, the next one that will close will be Birmingham Central, but the intention is to replace that with two new ones, however that won't happen any time soon, probably in the next few years.

Slightly off topic for this thread - But has any sites been announced for replacement of Central yet?

Exactly why I asked the question as it was mentioned in thread, I do think the response was bit unnecessary too.

I don't think any suitable sites have been found yet, well not as far as we know in garage. I'm hoping a site in either lea hall or garrats Green is found as I could just walk to work and not have to book the staff bus if I'm on a late or early duty

A site over that way would cut dead milage for 94 95 97, could see the 14 being moved to this new garage also

The last Google Street view image, but I think the TWM signs have come down since then.

I think there might have been noise issues with it (like Washwood Heath), or it was just something they didn't feel they needed at the time, as it is a bit small (especially in comparison to Acocks Green).
