3 more if Bustimes is correct. 47475/76/80. Anyone able to confirm please ??

According to someone on Facebook, we are getting eight > 47474 - 47481.

I have discovered that much of the late running is being caused by another set of traffic lights on London Road, near Red Hill, - yet AGAIN !!

Worcester really is a disaster of a place for a bus operation !!

I am seeing a lot of significant late running on the bustimes tracker, ( - especially at the AM peak) so if that info shown is correct, I think some further timetable changes will be needed, or at least one more vehicle and driver injected into the bus graph !! Maybe some improvement will happen nex...

Thanks Tim ! The photo of 35156 is interesting to me, -- it's showing St.Peters as the destination instead of Bevere -- This afternoon on the bustimes tracker for 35156 it does not show that it went on to do the PM S23, - until you click on the 17.31 working of the 30, - then map, - and this shows t...

IF they enter service at WR, that will gives us 35152-59, + 68 which is 9 StreetDecks
+ 32644.

Thanks Tim.
This is a new use of DDs in the afternoon -- it goes on to to do the S23 next, -- so possibly via the Northern link road (?) -- I will have to go and check, - unless someone can confirm !!

Interesting ! - thanks Adam.V I can't find any mention of it ANYWHERE -- my GUESS is it was a proposed service that didn't get "signed-off", but somehow the info got as far as the online timetable you have posted us (??) Other GUESSes are it might get done as a closed contract by First or ...
