Does 3704 still have the knackered diff it had for years at Cannock? Surely all 4 are coming up for withdrawal ?

When I last saw them at Telford before Christmas, 3701-2 and 3704 drove like dreams. 3703 ended up with a knackered diff and a dodgy gearbox. Whether this changed, however

Here's one of mine from 22.9.17 - not Midland Red but Bid Tamworth. 3417 was Midland Red back in 2008.
Only Guy Arabs (a choice of 63) stopped at my front door 1957-1964!

4408 is back as it is on the Tamworth 4/5 this afternoon.
Branded 3501 is on the 7/8 (two ordinary-liveried ones noticed on the 65)

Either £2.50 or £2.60 depending on which stop you are getting off at.

It's very nice to see another in "Midland Red" livery. By the way, the Tamworth businesses voted not to go ahead with the "Business Improvement District" (BID). It always looked a bit sad. I hope the new livery stays bright. Red can fade badly.

There seems to be quite a bit of loaning going on between Cannock and Tamworth.

Have 3701-4 gone? I haven't seen one in Tamworth this month.

At least one of 3701-4 was running from Cannock last week. Presumably theyre now end of life?

3701 is at Telford. 3702/3 are at Cannock 3704 is still at Tamworth currently on the pits and will be going back to Telford when fixed I believe

3704 is out this afternoon on the Tamworth 3. 3022 was noted on the 4/5.
