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.

FX04WFT on the 202 this morning, a total of 5 of these Solo's have been acquired but not sure if all are in service yet. ;)

The 202 seems to be pretty much exclusively Solo operated these days although I haven't seen it at peak times.

More problems with the 202 and Solo's today as YJ54BUE was noted " with the bonnet up " around 10.15 this morning in Bromsgrove bus station. :(

With the transfer of the working of the 202 to Kidderminster, larger vehicles now appear on this service from time to time, VX54MUO noted yesterday. It seems that two Solo's moved to Kidderminster from Tividale with the service - one being YM55SVG. :geek:

I seem to see a broken down Diamond in Bromsgrove every week.This Tuesday it was an E300 on the drive coming down from the Hospital.

A few weeks ago it was one by Waitrose on the mini island atleast the driver managed to get it half on the path.

About a month ago one stuck literally in the middle of Market Street whilst turning right into the bus station.

Either I'm very unlucky or their maintenance is really that bad :roll:
