170631 is sleeping at Shrewsbury tonight but will be on the Walsall & Chase line all day tomorrow (which I see is your neck of the woods) before ending it's shift at Worcester.
You should be safe from it on Friday as it'll be playing between Birmingham & Worcester / Hereford ;)

more complaints over the 313s yesterday.

One guy said they were 'horrible trains' and that the armrests were 'dreadful'.. that the train looked like it would 'fall apart at any moment'

Another person debated why they have introduced the trains commenting they have fewer seats than those they replaced...

They clearly create a stir.

I'd love to hear them if pacers were introduced! Bognor-Littlehampton would be perfect just fit third rail shoegear ;)

With such a small fleet of 3 cars to cover the diagram though, you have a 1 in 6 chance of getting it on the right train anyway!

I used to catch the 0727 New Street to Shrewsbury 5 days a week and it didn't take long to get through them, heh.
