2535 is in from Derby, 2573 has moved on to Hinckley, as has 2209.

Pulsar 2, 3754 appears to have settled at Shrewsbury for use on the 519 Shrewsbury - Newport due to standing loads regularly on the school peaks on the V1170 Versas. Versa V1100 2981 is understood to have moved onto Telford in exchange. Does anyone know if this is a temporary move or permanent swap?

Thankyou

@BN do any of Shrewsbury routes do the mad interworking?

Just seen a post on the arriva website regarding 2212/2744 they are working out of here possibility a loan move 2744 was supposed to have gone back to Cannock then Telford but ended up here

Depotosw

2744 and 2212 have turned up at Shrewsbury to release Versas for the regained 436 service. This is due to Shropshire Council pulling EasyCoach off the run for poor performance and getting Arriva Midlands back on it. 2744 worked the 24 and later seen on the 17:15 64 to Market Drayton.

2574 BU03 HPY has reappeared at Shrewsbury after been moved away in late 2017, noted sticking out of the workshop at the garage on Saturday.

Been told by a Shrewsbury driver this morning that later this month the following services will transfer from Shrewsbury back to Telford garage;

* 297 (Kidderminster - Bridgnorth via Alveley)
* 113 (Bridgnorth - Telford via Sutton Maddock)
* 114 (Bridgnorth - Telford via Beckbury)
* 115/116 (Bridgnorth - Weston Heath via Shifnal)

Will be nice to see Pulsars back on the 297 I'm sure @Reece will agree

Did he say if this would mean a couple of Solos will move over alongside the operation?

No - although I do believe the reason for these routes being moved back to Telford is because of the 10 (Wolverhampton to Telford) being scrapped thus freeing up buses which are currently used on that route

They're only scrapping part of the route ain't they(impression got elsewhere).

There's rumours Cannock is taking over the Wolves to Perton bit, interworking with their 70.
