Best way to burton centre from rail station?

Thanks

Turn right out the station and walk.

Failing that the bus stop on the other side of the road has plenty of choice.

Scania Wright Solars 86/82/81 and DAF Pulsar Gemini 45 are on the X12 today.
I thought the X12 needed 3 buses but I saw 4 buses on there today at Lichfield

Scania Wright Solar 88 seemed to be a spare bus at Lichfield

I think the Burton-Lichfield X12s interwork with another route in Burton

@John They interwork with the 812 on both ends, i believe, as the past twice i did the 812, it changed to an X12 at Lichfield
Hypocrites are like flares... a right pain if one goes near you, and really annoying to get rid of...

According to the Norwich Bus Page it is only on loan to Lynx for 5 weeks.

When I looked earlier on there they hadn't posting anything but I did think there would be a post on there about it sometime soon. I did think it hadn't stayed at Midland Classic very long

There must be other firms nearer to loan buses rather than midland classic in Burton

Steven Knight posting dud gen.it's just a loan. Funny that a load of scousers today thought it was step entrance and new to Stevenson's. Didn't jump in with the correct history so don't start on me.

Any one heard what is happening to the ex Arriva DAF Commanders that were up for sale on e-bay? Caught a glimpse of one the other day in Burton obviously in service as it had a good load.  Also saw a Enviro 200 in a red livery with Midland Classic stickers. Only caught part of the reg which was YX09 any news on that?
