I would be interested to hear from anyone who works for First as to whether the new traffic lights and other details, between the bus station and Sidbury are helping the buses (or not !)

Any reason why all the Streetdecks were in the depot today?? 4 Tridents and both B7TLs out on 30 and 44 (according to bustimes ;) ) I spotted that too, Birmingham_Bus ! The last time that happened (I think) they were having their "Malverns decoration" updated -- "up-to 7 buses per hour" was changed...

BMMO started running buses up Ombersley Road on Wednesday 4th November 1914, to Kidderminster and Stourbridge, on Service 37. Yes, same route number! That route was later the 315/6 and now the 303. OK, this is not a local route like the original W1 from 1928 or today’s 37, and before 1928 they were...

I see on bustimes.org this afternoon, that a DD (33405) has been used on the new S5 -- -- that's the first time as far as I know ( willr7 ?). Unfortunately it wasn't then used on a further service in the Pershore area, but that might be a future opportunity ( - for single-decker or DD). I like the ...

I've noticed 20202 has been parked in the "scrap corner" in recent days, so this prompts me to ask if anyone knows if 20611/12 have been used on the S55 yet ?

Its on loan whilst another vehicle, I think it is one of the grey Citaros, is away for exhaust modification. Looking on the bus tracker, it shows 64014 as out of service whereas both the grey ones are in service (today), -- could it be possible that THIS (old) Citaro is being converted to Euro6 ? -...

Saw her on the 37 this morning so she must be fixed already!

Thanks Mark, that's a surprise !

(It must have been just a new elastic band needed ! )

I am very pleased to see that the wording on First's website has now been improved, and now clarifies the matter !!
