How does the 141 use 5 buses on the Sunday and the 9 only uses 5?

141 has 5 buses with a 30 minute frequency, 9 has 6 buses with a 20 minute frequency. The 141 is slightly longer than the 9 and there is considerable layover at Merry Hill on the 141 whereas the 9 only stays at Stourbridge for a few minutes

Ok apologies, didn't realise the 9 frequency dropped so low, was under the impression it was every 15 minutes

Another thing, how does the 246 have 4 buses on a sunday when i know it to only use 2

For the PVR of the 246 to be 2. The journey time in either way would have to be over 15 minutes but under 30 minutes, and the frequency would have to be every 30 minutes. It may use 2 buses in the evenings, but I'm unsure of this

Please tell me how they would achieve a 20 minute frequency on the 246 with only 2 buses?

I ride the 246 almost every Sunday in order to see which four Enviros get put on there.

Yes, the frequency drops to every 30 minutes in the evening, and layover is cut out meaning 2 buses are used

Ex pensnett driver

On an evening it is 25 minutes each way on the 246 with 5 minute layover either end

510, 544 and 554 are out today.

try again.

510 is now back on garage.

only one trident on garage at present, 4194.

all the withdrawn vehicles have been pulled out from the bottom of the car patk and have joined the excels on the sides. you can clearly see the fire damage to 1644.

there are now 3 b6s on the back wall, think they are 502 581 & 582 although can't confirm the last one as its in the middle!

as i left, an old friend passed by, 620 with sorry not in servce on blinds.

Apparently 4189 is on the 276 according to my brother
