Ah Thankyou Tony, why did lm sell some too cross country? Cross country's 170 are also very nice.

What sort are the cramped two car ones on chase line? I have to resort to catching the 4.27 to Walsall then waiting for the cannock train there. Tonight the 505 which was late as per was ridiculous

I think you should consider buying a car

Bob

Cannock to brum in car at rush hour isn't really viable.  Hence the amount of people that use the train

And yet you expect a bus doing that same route to be viable
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

Cars didn't have bus priority lanes the last time I looked

MW

The amount that you bitch on here Bob, why don't you pull your finger out and either do something about it or find a new hobby other than moaning?

The words 'deal with it' spring to mind

Bob

Was stating a fact. Cars don't use bus lanes.  On another topic the old station buildings on the platform at hamstead and Witton what's behind those closed locked doors next to the frosted windows?  Store rooms? Loos?

Has the 150 changed diagrams or still operating same?

LM don't own any, nor do XC, they're all owned by Porterbrook.

Some of LM's transferred to XC when the two franchises were remapped and basically the Cardiff - Notts diagram group went to XC along with its compliment of T*s.
Don't you start.
