weather and buses in late october at Mt. Wutai.

Great website! I am booking my way through Shanxi right now, will check out of Datong garden hotel on the 15th, ponder on visiting Wutai Shan and continue to Taiyuan. The Lonely Planet reads that buses only drive in the summer time and warns for blizzards. After I read this website I decide to give it a try. Please offer some specific info where to get the bus from datong and where to get the bus or train to Taiyuan. I look forward to my time in China, Thanks in advance!
