The Black Country Museum and Dudley are not in Birmingham. Dudley is a Metropolitan Town in it's own right nd is not a part of Birmingham being arround 7 miles from Birmingham in the Black Country

Because they were beyoned their sell by date, old and restrictive in that they could not run off the over head wires into new housing estates as new over head wiring required installing and in the 1970's it was not being manufactured any more so Diesel Buses were introduced that could go any where, the modern equiverlent now is the Electric Buses being built that are as versatile as a Diesel Bus that can travel ant where with out over head wiring.

A great museum, I remember it well. I still have a leaflet from them in my collection.

I recall reading a book about the London Underground and they did have a section, on when the 1938 tube stock ran on the East London Line for a short period. It stated that notices were pasted in the cars to warn passengers of the step, when boarding and alighting the train. Since the platforms on the line were obviously made for full sized sub-surface stock and not for the tube stock in mind.

To date, the 313s are the only trains in this film that are still in service (but not for much longer)
