Sadly, DD's can't be used on the 150A route between Redditch and Worcester because of the low bridges and tunnel by Shrub Hill Station. Shame as it would be a nice ride on a decker.

Great pictures and memories as always Tim.

I remember 38126 operating a 247 from Redditch to Evesham that I was riding once. We never even made it to the top of Unicorn Hill out of Redditch Bus Station before it overheated.

I know a few residents on the Droitwich Westlands estate have complained to WCC regarding the loss of the LMS 20 / 20A / 20B service and at least two people on LMS's 39 route have also complained. I am led to believe that in both cases nobody has had a response as yet. As mentioned earlier in this t...

Seems odd how Astons are still running their 19 and 21 service in Droitwich for instance but LMS aren't running their 20 to Westlands. Not to mention their Worceste...

I guess the new 44 that's replacing the 202 will still be operated by Kidderminster garage?

I will miss the 202, I used to use it regularly for a pint in The Hare & Hounds at Rednal.

I wonder if the 303 will ever come back! I hope it does.

I can see Diamond just running a shoppers journey once a day or something between Kidderminster - Hartlebury and Ombersley at best.

Super pictures and memories Tim. Many thanks for posting. Keep them coming!
