Huge traffic on that evening, ended up 3 X1 buses stuck together. It took about 25 mins from Moor St to Bordesley Station (about 20 mins more than usual).
The 2 buses in front of us made a stop at Meriden Green 1:00:20 and since the 1st bus terminated at Meriden, people were transferring onto the 2nd bus, and our bus which was the 3rd one overtook both of them, and arrived Coventry first lol...

I used to like getting this bus on a lazy day when it was the old 900. Nowadays it’s like the Marrakesh express, the only thing missing is a man with a moustache with a crate of live chickens on his lap. Absolute torture.

An interesting journey which must have been very frustrating for the passengers. (I could stop the video to go to the toilet. 😁) I found one or two glitches. The road name when we are between Falcon Way and Airport Way is, apparently Moor Street. When we are by the A45 bridge the road name is Bordesley Circus.

If I was on any of the 2 buses in front it would be full of people on the bus, especially the 1st bus (about an hour late) cuts its journey at Meriden...but I was clever enough to get on the 3rd one, so it had only up to 15 people for the entire journey lol...
