@Rhys S I work on the 276 route and quite often I see a mix of Volvos and Mercs on there. Mercs are only noteworthy on there on Sundays

From what i saw last night on both the 244 and 276 (running through Lye to Dudley around 1930 and empty), a mini bus would have had to many seats.

Are these routes really worth running on Sunday Nights?

The 244 is tendered on Sunday's as is parts of the 276 on sunday

I think Centro were in Stourbridge bus station last Sunday checking passenger numbers on the 276 towards wollaston

Do Centro use just their figures or do they also use the bus operators figures when making choices about tendered routes? Sorry if its been asked before

Tender due for renewal in October! Am surprised it is only the portion between Stourbridge and Wollaston that is tendered, tbh can see it being withdrawn on Sunday nights.

Cant imagine many other routes enjoy many passengers late on a Sunday though. 276 is always pretty busy rest of the times. Probably one of PE's busiest services at times on parts of the route.

On Sunday's after merry hill shuts routes start to go quiet

[Trident 4194]

At least 4 tridents on 9, and there 2 lots that are on consecutive boards.

Interesting at PE today, only one bus (2088) in the dead box.

5 Enviros awaiting next duty and a Trident parked over the far side (presume it waiting MOT).

No singles spare at all!!

I wonder if it was 4346 i saw parked up on the farside, although i have to say it didn't look a repaint?
