They could run a Litchfield to Cannock  on Sundays.
Not sure there would be much demand to travel to Cannock from a tiny village in Hampshire. From
Lichfield in Staffordshire, perhaps...

NXWM are even closer to Cannock now... why can't they just stop playing hard to get lol

They could run a Litchfield to Cannock (Arriva 60/61 route)... then Walsall to Cannock (X51 route) on Sundays.
Where's Litchfield?  ???

Saturday 1st September is going to be the running day.

At the moment we are currently expecting to have 4 unusual liveries on the normal service and 4 'vintage' buses running free duplicates. That number may grow. There may also be some 'heritage trips' on the 301 to mark the last use of a 3xx number in Walsall.

Keep watching for more details

I'll be honest I don't remember I'm a 90's kid so not been around that long, and until last year I hadn't used a bus since I was a kid (we used to catch the 351 Midlands Travel, then number 1 Chase Linx!).

The 154 was only within the last year...
