So they get rid of a couple of Sapphires, then now consider refurbing another vehicle to Sapphire spec?

WTF?

Busman Jamie

74/825 get the volvos, 60 gets commanders /cadets

Bob

Commanders/Cadets again a comedown considering 60 and 825 had new pulsars purchased specifically for them. Some of which are now wasted on Pye Greens...seriously

You were the one moaning they were not on Pye Greens a couple of days ago

Bob

Moaning they werent on pye greens? Just stating that solos were on there and how it had declined as a route if thats whats allocated

While there was a 37xx on the 1 / 2 instead!

By the way, if they must put timetable leaflets on the buses themselves, at least put them on for the service the bus is operating that day!

The 25 / 26 is very useful for passengers on the 1 / 2 .... not!

Bob

There was also a 38xx Volvo on 1 and 2. Its insane. S##t allocating. Cant even use the "Sapphire was faulty so it had to be kept on locals" excuse when its put on a longer route!!!

Bob

Its hilarious theyre even thinking of refurbing their only 63 plate Pulsar, to a Sapohire. It'll end up on Stafford locals or something ! Plus why not just transfer a Sapphire branded bus from elsewhere? Than go to the expense of refurbishing a 5 yr old bus like that when theres buses that need refurbing far more!

Busman Jamie

There is no 38## volvos at Cannock? There all 39##?

Bob

Also refurbing a Pulsar sized bus to a higher standard which will operate on the 2? Hardly a route that needs it. A breadvan could take the loadings

Ahhh yea lol

Bob

For some reason i thought pulsars were 39xx and forgot they was 37xx 😂

BusMan Greg

A sapphire on the 70 again

Bob

The usual excellent allocation. Why are they even bothering with Sapphire at Cannock anyway? It didnt increase patronage ? It didnt work? The depot's dying a death its just managed decline, possibly hence the complete lack of investment for 3 and a half years...
