been told by bus driver diamonds buses still buying whittle so what to believe ?

Nope I have it on good authority that they have indeed pulled out of the deal because I am lead to believe Shropshire Council hadn't taken the news that Diamond were buying the coach side of the business with great pleasure and it is them who have scuppered the deal

What's Shropshire Council got to do with the proposed takeover? Is that who supported the school routes that scuppered the deal?
no it Worcestershire  council  supported the school routes

I agree with you trainbasher, the only bit of the whittles operation now the 101 is finished is the small bit of the 125  from where it crosses the Worcestershire / Shropshire  border some where between arley  and highley on to bridgnorth

Yes mate that's it

I see, any idea why Diamond aren't very popular at Shropshire Council?

I'm guessing maybe they think Diamond would end up being unreliable or something..

Diamond Bus can be very unreliable and the following councils and district councils have had bad dealings with Diamond in the past and currently. Whether with poor service frequency or just buses not turning up at all to being very dirty.

Worcestershire County Council
Wyre Forest District Council
Redditch Borough Council

Right then Whittle send 3 coaches from Kidderminster every school day to Highley they pick up the school kids from all the villages in between Highley & Bridgnorth and then they go to Bridgnorth Endowed and Oldbury Wells

Will is completely correct. I travel on the Bridgnorth to Highley road very frequently and every school day there are three coaches come from Bridgnorth and drop kids off in Highley etc. I should think SC (there is no county council, just Shropshire Council, it has been a unitary authority since 2009) would have something to do with it being the local authority.
