With 4 ANW Pulsars going to Wednesdield, maybe the rest of the lot due for the Midlands fleet will transfer to Cannock?

Not all of them.

[Bob]

Are cannock getting any of them?

Yes

What's the point of moving pulsars on to move more of the same in? For the X60 presumably theyre for?

Because the change is starting 11th Jan and the ANW ones aren't due till later.

Dear Bob. Here is an equation for you...

Value of bus.....Interior 5%.....Chassis/Mechanical Components/Bodywork/Floor 95%

I meant from a passenger point of view and also age wise! That was all. But I forgot your the absolute oracle of all things arriva. ..

Speaking of lichfield services,  I see the peak X35 into lichfield two to three times a week at around 830-40am ive yet to see more than three passengers on more often than not its empty. Centros....for a route like this....

Far from it. But you can't select vehicles for your operation based on the seats and trim alone, or in many cases atall. A mechanically sound and economic vehicle can easily be done up on the inside. The same can't be said the other way around.

Thats tbe thing though arriva often dont. So far theres been one sb200 commander ex route one done up, the others just look s##t inside, & the one dart that did get refurbished and sprayed has just been transferred out. The commanders are bearable, but will look much nicer and be a lot better for passengers to travel on once theyve been done. Cannock are years behind the other garages as there's were pretty much done years ago. Im amazed BU03 HRK hasn't been done it probably has the worst seats in the entire midlands fleet
