Does anyone know the exact timings of the 53 double decker boards?

@Sh4318 looking at some photos I've taken and comparing them to the timetable, they are (or at least, were) the ones that leave West Brom for Merry Hill at 12:40 and 1:10. As a guess, I would presume they would then come back from MH at 2:15 and 2:45 respectively, arriving at West Brom again at 3:40 and 4:10.

Don't hold me to this though, the last time I tried to work out where a bus would be by looking at the the timetable I was way off. Hope this helps though :)

@Sh4318 @N94

Sure i read somewhere on here that the 14:45 was supposed to be a decker because off the school traffic on the service.

Yeah 14:45 is double decker, because of the amount of Oldbury, College of Sport pupils who use it, it gets full to the brim, thanks @N94

The 9.15 from merry hill is a decker that takes them to school 53.06
And
The 9.45 from merry hill is a decker that makes the 14.45 from merry hill to take them home 53.04 have a ride on the home time bus if you dare

[Sh4318]

@karl724223 I think I'll pass on that one, I've seen the loadings on the 14:45

Saw a B7 and a Trident going in opposite directions on the 53 outside Smethwick Rolfe St. That would've made a great photo

1515 on the 53 today looking fantastic, whether its just been MOT'ed or someone at PE decided it deserved a good clean!

Manor Way is also buggered due to (I think) grass cutting on the bypass so 9 and 241 may suffer
