Back in the old days the buses used to have leather seat whenever it rains it was easy to wipe off

trying to put this first on my likes

The amount of times I've been on a 78/79/979 in the 80s... I live in north Wales now (left midlands in about 1990 and moved around a lot) and a 5 mile bus journey takes 10 minutes (60mph, barely any stops) 😂 Wednesbury to Wolves used to feel like it took forever because of all the traffic and the number of stops. Some of it has changed so much I didn't know where you were. Thanks for the nostalgia trip 😃

I agree about alum rock . I have lived near to the glebe since l got married and it has got progressively worse

I was a conductor in 1968 at Harbore Garage on the Outer Circle .

Hey mate, it would be the best if the title is not hanged out there

Where is that place that you are

If you do suggestions, may I suggest the 46/46a between QE Hospital and Kings or 88 between Solihull and Coventry? I believe they are both run by Stagecoach.

A much nicer place back then 😢

The music doesn't really bother me it's better having someone chatting behind you talking rubbish

I’d love to see you redo this exact route and then do a side by side or something, I bet no looks worse.

Birmingham has always been a shithole😁

Hello thank you so so much for making this video im very happy that you arrived safely to the UK from saudi arabia

Thanks

Back in the old days it used to be called East Birmingham hospital

Thanks

Thanks

Mate did def not pass his driving licence

can you please do the new 97a route it goes to the Airport

I live in handsworth for almost a year but i wii be moving too that town when i get my self contained flat there in about 3 mouths time it looks amazing good video im looking forward to the move there

Thank you for a great video, lovely to see the streets I walked through as a young man. It seems like yesterday…if only I could go back!

Back when you wouldn't be charged to drive in your own city,

Look how clean this town is no rubbish what so ever nice and tidy and no beggars or homless people around only if every town was like this the world would look so much more better

At the moment i live in handsworth and there is rubbish down every street you go down and flytipping rubbish outside people's house and lots of druggies around so im looking forward too moveing over there soon looks much more cleaner then handsworth

There was a cinema in Birmingham near the Rotunda. My aunty took me and my sister to watch the care bear movie. I wasn't impressed but my sister loved it so it was cool. I used to love getting the bus into the city then a bus to my nans in nechells. Good times

Great video, I've subscribed.,Thank you 😊😊

Jesus, that place is well out of focus or what..

It's like the sweeny but without sound...

I used to go on this bus when I was a young man in the 1980s watch an enjoyable ride which brought back some memories for me especially Birmingham that has changed through the years I no longer living Birmingham anymore but London

what route is this now as they got rid of this route

Think the driver got the number wrong cause the 11A is for Acocks green and the 11 is for Walsall/wolverhampton

Do 637 manor hospital via highgate or 74 gility village . Just a suggestion.( btw i live in highgate it is a really nice place & quiet)

Didn't you film the 70 before?

Since it sped up it sounds like a hellcat

what time of day was this recorded ?

Uhr, WHO ADDS MUSIC TO THIR VIDEOS IT WILL BE BEST WITH NO MUSIC!

city centre was a dilapidated mess. Its not perfect now but its so much better than then. it was awful. Anyone who thinks differently is just being nostalgic.

Used this route for many years…

Did you do another 29 video continuing on to Bloxwich?

Are you from Pakistan I hope one of the days when you go home that you'll be able to film the buses and coaches there because I saw some CZcams videos about some of the coaches they are fantastic they are like hotels on wheels I hope I have not offended you in any way

Hello when are you going to do the 50A again I don't know if it's still running or not because I watch the fast version of the 50A Birmingham to Redditch

Horrible music choice

Thank you for my request!

Love how people blame other s for the degradation of their cities. Wake up people... THIS IS ALL TO DO WITH GOVERNMENT POLICIES that have lead to moral and social degradation of this country. They slowly keep chipping away at what's good and then have you blaming each other instead of looking at those in power.. WAKE UP!

Enjoyed this👍👍👍

No route information on screen whatsoever. No stars.

I think road humps should be right next to the schools where be safe for them and the car to slow down I don't think there should be on every road that you see I would prefer them to be next to schools or hospital

Everyone in the comments are honestly complete idiots when they’re saying things like “much better times” and “things were so much better back then”. This was 1987. During this time the crime rate, gun crime and every other statistic was way higher than it is right now. Everyone’s crying about Birmingham now but back in the 90s and 80s it was 10x worse. Stop crying and pretending to be a victim, if anything Birmingham has gotten better

just curious because I do similar videos. do you ask the driver of the bus to put the camera with them in the cockpit. or do you drive the buses?. because the 54 is always a single decker bus.

Will you be here for ever
