With the first phase east side extension potentially opening in November, I'm interested to learn what the service patterns will be going forward.... 🤔
Anyways, Line 1 continues to operate with Tram 35 & 50 running between Wolverhampton & Edgbaston last weekend. 🚊🔷

Headed up to Sutton Coldfield today for the Bull trial....
Opted for Arrivas 110 so I could finally try out the ADL "seed" vehicle. 🚌
Very impressed, comfortable, very fast. Better than BYDs on the city bodies which NX operates.

Whilst out at Barnt Green a couple of days ago, some big progress has been made since I last here on the lifts installation here.
The lift towers are being assembled and the foundations for them are progressing well. 👍
