Steve, I think the main point being made is how would non bus enthusiast loyal passengers even know such a forum existed?

If you guys are implying that the people posting good things about Sandwell travel are either the owners or in some way linked to Sandwell travel, then just think about what you are saying.
These guys searched for the forum and posted several times or using several accounts from different places (so as to change ip address) just to make believe the company has a loyal following.
Now think again, how ridiculous does that sound.
I have refrained from making comment till now but, it does look like this operator has turned things around, their buses are 90% of the time within tolerance & i have seen several passengers having a conversation with the driver when boarding or alighting, which does suggest they are regulars.
Well done I say & keep it up.

there is also the abusive message I deleted basically telling Martinmorris not to be do nosey looking in their garage


Martin

Who ever it was that called me nosey for looking into the garage has got it totally wrong as I was walking to West Bromwich from my home in Wednesbury not my usual route to walk into West Bromwich but I was on a public footpath and both of the buses were in view one was on the road outside of the garage and the other was parked up on the front just outside of the unit. . . . . . SO DON'T CALL ME NOSEY.  >:(

All their other vehicles have electronic front blinds so they don't have roller blinds.

KX51UCR was on the 333x yesterday. It came into Walsall bus station at 16.20 as the 16.15 departure and went on stand M, as the 19 was on N, where a NWM inspector appeared to have a "suitable conversation".

On the 45 there buses wont get up the Charlemont farm hill :) there would be better trying out the 4 between Walsall and West Bromwich rather than the 45.
