This is one of my favorites from the Fuzzy Warbles series:
keep in mind that the third box also includes disc 9 Hinges which was originally only available as part of a limited box set.

While these symbols may mean something if you live on England they look they traffic, bus, train symbols to me. but...
Big Express? I would be very happy with that

It would just be different for them to use an alternate cover. My guess is still a compilation or AP solo effort.
5.1 seems to be a hint. Keeping my hopes tempered though.

It has to be, just because I spent hours working on a crude upmix of the CD last week

The lyrical clues are from both mummer and the big express. I'm thinking it'll be a fuzzy warbles type thing in 5.1 or something similar...AP solo versions of stuff.

Songs from both albums with the title 'The Big Mummer'
The last clues:
5.1 sure seems certain
Too obscure for me. Twitter respondents are leaning towards Mummer, using tortuous reasoning ("Great Fire (of London started in Pudding Lane which is close to London Bridge - the bus destination"; "Mummer ... reached No. 51 on the UK album chart"). But 5.1, for sure.

I recall Andy saying 'Can't believe they found that one' (or similar words) which would imply a complete album was located... so the clues may relate to something new. Someone is having fun with the hints.......
Obviously a new cover for the big express as in a double decker bus is big and it could be an express bus number 51 for 5.1 or 51 tracks included

You may be burning with optimism's flames there....
Those are extra bonus tracks to The Big Express in that last clue.
Sorry to disappoint you all, but turns out I was right.
The teasers being posted were NOT for the next XTC 5.1 release.
Instead it's a new EP from Andy and Robyn Hitchcock called "Planet England"

Love Robyn HItchcock. Oh well; we still have an XTC reissue coming late summer, supposedly.
I think it's now gonna be October or November before the next XTC remix is released since they are releasing not only the Andy/RH EP in September, but they are also releasing a new vinyl edition of "Black Sea" next month too: https://burningshed.com/xtc_black-sea_vinyl
Well, maybe we'll start getting a series of cryptic Twitter hints before then.

That's no disappointment! Two of my favorite songwriters collaborating is a wonderful thing. A while back they co-wrote a tune on one of Hitchcock's albums which is great. Looking forward to hearing more. And I am sure the next 5.1 release is just around the corner. It's a good year to be an XTC fan!
