Service Changes - Stafford-Wolverhampton

[Tony]

Anyone know exactly what Arriva are doing on the Wolverhampton-Stafford corridor?

It looks like lots of different variations appearing (76, 76A, 76S, X76 and 78), but reduced to hourly overall and with diversions via Brewood

[the trainbasher]

Could the 78 be a similar route to the 878 of Select?

[Bob]

Hopefully it's going back to stafford garage!

[Tony]

Hopefully it's going back to stafford garage!

Looking like Wednesfield may be doing some

Had heard that the 76 would be going all day via Brewood and be extended to Stafford Hospital replacing the 75 there.  Will find out on Monday the actual details.  Also heard it would be operated by another depot (Wednesfield).

Hopefully the evening service will improve. Under WD that's more likrly

[Bob]

75 being curtailed then?

[Tony]

75 being curtailed then?

I believe so, leaving Penkridge-Stafford hourly

[Bob]

Ohhhh. I mwant curtailed at stafford town centre.  Theres nothing on the arriva site?

[Westy]

Suppose Wednesfield ought to do a bit more work outside WM county.

[Bob]

Maybe they'll actually have a need for a full size single decker now :-p

[Other Walsall Tony]

What about Penkridge - Cannock? And would the only Stafford - Cannock link be hourly via Brocton?

[Westy]

What are the loadings like between Cannock & Penkridge?

Green Bus tended to finish early with no evening & Sunday service.

[woody38]

on the NWM timetable link they have the new 76 timetable

[Bob]

Pity Arriva cant get it together enough to advertise the changes on its buses or website considering they take place a fortnight tomorrow! !!!!!
