Cause the daytime is commercial isnt it? Wonder who would be doing the bidding, very much doubt nxwm would be arsed with the route

There seems to be a lack of choice on the contracts for evenings & Sunday in Walsall at the mo.

The only route ISTR NX won a contract for, was the 7 to Aldridge, any other contracts I can think of are either Arriva or Diamond operated.

What are the current evening & Sunday contracts in Walsall? I can think of the 2, the 7, the 41, the 335.

Anything else is NX and commercial otherwise.

NXs most recent win within the borough of Walsall was the 935A, won off Diamond as the 56A

Forgot about that one.

There is also the 8A (Arriva) & 33A (Diamond) in Walsall. I believe the evening service on the 6 is also tendered - Arriva initially won the last tender, but threw it back. The last round trip on the 40E is tendered as well.

The timetables dont actually say so now, do they, unless you're familliar with the route.

I believe 2330 is a 'reserved' viehcle, its only used when needs to be, I should imagine that its only got weeks/months before scrapping

Arriva have cancelled the Amazon A1 from 17th April on VOSA today, has the contract ended or is the service moving to Wednesfield?

It is now I know why one of the deckers has gone they now have 3 the 2 red ones and the ex London Daf. Amazon must have got hacked off with Arriva already.

Bob

Its about time another operator started competing in Cannock, Arriva would either fail miserably or pull their socks up!
