The time of the day and the location we find ourselves in means a fourth consecutive journey on the same bus service, so at least we endeavour to arrive at a destination with more than one offering, so we next board the 2326 National Express Midlands Platinum service 529 to Wolverhampton (Bus Station) that arrives there at 2352 on Saturday evening.
