Quote from: Dennis Dart Plaxton Pointer on March 22, 2024, 02:19:17 AMThe plan is too eventually withdraw them but sadly its getting the money to replace them. Only 2 they are keeping for a long while is 192 and 625625 a long term thing then despite its age?
Quote from: Dennis Dart Plaxton Pointer on March 22, 2024, 05:56:10 PMThere is now a white Metro city sitting in the delta way yard. Unknown why its there or if it is for Chaserider or D&GNoticed that earlier, went past on 70

Engine is playing up again so gonna take time to order parts inArent they coming to end of life surely? Theyve never had an internal refurb, nx's newer ones are on their 2nd. I think two of em have already been scrapped
Quote from: Dennis Dart Plaxton Pointer on March 20, 2024, 12:24:22 AMNope, looks like there was no bus spare to allocate it as 124 did the 10:50 to cannock in which it was meant to do the 9:33 from Lichfeild. Looks like as soon as 124 arrived it got wizzed up to Stafford to fill the missing busWonder why theyre so short? They got buses off road or something?
Quote from: LNational on March 19, 2024, 06:17:59 PMSurprised to catch D&G Solo 124 MX05ENF on the Chaserider 826 today - sticker saying on hire to chaserider but no working number or destination displays....That was like the most unreliable Solo ever lol. It went out to replace a breakdown on 70 once and broke down itself
Driver pleasant though - are chaserider so short of vehicles that this is out on long journeys ???
Quote from: Dennis Dart Plaxton Pointer on March 07, 2024, 11:36:18 AMThe last time it got sent away it just sat there. The company couldn't be bothered to look at it and fix it so never got paid for it. Hence why it was away for so long and now been sent away again to actually get fixed. As for 144 they don't know what to do with it atm144 was actually nice to ride from a passenger point of view. Its a shame that two 64 plate buses are sha##ed 😒
Quote from: Dennis Dart Plaxton Pointer on March 07, 2024, 12:05:09 AM62 has gone away again to actually be worked on this time and 144 is still sitting in a sorry state on the yardJesus they mustve thrown some money at 62. Unlikely 144 will come back then?
Quote from: Dennis Dart Plaxton Pointer on February 12, 2024, 12:57:03 AMStill can use anything. They have an exemption to not use Euro 6 buses on itIs it only till a certain date?
Quote from: BN on February 11, 2024, 08:00:49 PMA lot of negative comments on here, so thought I'd post my experience.1 of those two has had the 4 new vehicles, the other has to be euro 6 i think. Mightve been better doing a comparison with the 74 say and 826 828
60 from Lichfield to cannock, had 639, on time, decent driver, etc.
3 from Cannock to Norton canes, had 1 or 2 (the white one) again, on time, decent run
All seemed OK to me fro the day.
Quote from: Dennis Dart Plaxton Pointer on February 11, 2024, 12:11:48 AMTo get "newer" buses it requires money which no one has. Be greatful they actually put a bus on there even it is small. Better than no bus at allYes an often 2 hourly service is a godsend when a 26 seat solo arrives after a long wait 🤣
