Re: on demand buses for Bromsgrove

I was meeting up with some friends in Birmingham one evening last week and needing a bit of flexibility I opted for the train rather than the 144.It's about a 35 minute brisk walk from mine to the station so thought I'd give the on demand bus a try especially as the journey would be free :D Download...

Re: Dudleys Coaches to close at end of year

Dudley's had one coach in a white, blue and red livery with that branding, I always assumed it was a company they had taken over or an old name from the local area.

Re: Dudleys Coaches to close at end of year

Had to book the car in for an MOT yesterday and whilst looking on the Facebook page of where I take it I noticed they had a link to a new coach company on there. https://www.facebook.com/royalmotorwayscoaches The name and the livery seems to ring a bell I'm sure there was a coach company of that nam...
