Went past cannock yard today bob and clocked 2293 parked up looking out of action, all the back looked damaged and along side 2285 was parked looking withdrawn :D...... Is this the start to mpd's finishing at cannock?

2289 REALLY needs to go, thats the one the driver described as a f#####g joke and a disgrace to be out in service

2293 is right and I agree about 2289, as much as there all shit 2290 has to be tha best 1 out the 4 of them

Apparently 2293 is awaiting a engine after the old one seized up on the 76 service

We've got 2347 on loan at Tamworth from Cannock and our drivers are complaining that it'll only do 15mph uphill and it keeps jerking gears!

Tamworth are more than welcome to the s351yog if they like, I'm sure Cannock would appreciate a couple of mercs/scanias or even deckers in its place :p and is kwk likely to be repaired then?
