Well to say that Tony drove them 350 miles and no problem, then they go out on a route and breakdown.

 I had not seen either 731 or 732 but I noticed for 731 was this Dundee's second attempt to get shut of it?  Its first sojourn was del to PB then sent back again last year..  As For tony driving them some 350 miles maybe he should have taken the handbrake off  :-\ :) :)

Ps. Are the other two (733/734) likely to replace them?..........

731 was sent back and never used, presumably they had no requirement for it, 732 had also been out of use for some time as well.
733 and 734 are at AG for the JLR, why would they replace them?

732 was on PN5 today

I think they should extend the 5 to Stourbridge to give people new links Russell's hall between amblecote and kford itself or revive the 261 to Wolverhampton via the A449 and renumber it to X5. There are hardly any passengers that I see on the 5 I think a combination of the pensnett roadworks (made the service very unreliable) and an hourly frequency has killed it

731 is out today on the 2

To be honest I to think the PN5 is a lost cause, most of it's route is covered by other services and to be honest PN garage seem to throw any spare bus they have at it, including Platinums. Time that NX wielded the axe i think!

Anybody know if there are any diversions on the 9 next week around the Hayes Lane/Bromley Street/Prospect Coaches area, sure I saw signs up from Cadent saying that the road was closed next week. Looked on NX/NWM websites and can't find anything?

Edit: All signs about this work which should have strated on Monday have vanished!!
