Diamond in and around Bromsgrove.

Not really a major story but a u.i.d., Solo had broken down in Bromsgrove bus station earlier this morning. :( Would guess it was on a 202 working.

Re: MRN Tiger/EL2000 Rebodies - How Many Left?

Re: Older double deckers.

Thanks Andrew for your interesting updates on the Stratford area. Thank you for the complement. To be honest, my main reason for going to Stratford is to see what tour coaches are about.

Double [ Diamond ] Deckers.

Showing my age somewhat by the wordplay in the thread title but I noticed Redditch's V540ESC working a 247 to Evesham this afternoon and thought what a nice ride to be had on this scenic route. Upstairs of course ! ! :)

Older double deckers.

Re: 144 Route.

Forgive me for stating the bloomin' obvious but the 144 is being diverted via Broad Street and Crabtree Lane in Bromsgrove for a number of weeks due to road works on the Stourbridge Road, it would have been nice if the proposed additional yellow line on the north side of Crabtree Lane had been insta...
