Any idea why Metrocity (YJ16 D**) has just come along Thornbridge Avenue in Perry Beeches? Bit far for from Cannock?

144 and 169 were on rail replacement today between Birmingham New Street and Tame Bridge Parkway.

Looks like they are doing some 'live' route learning, as there was 3 members of staff on the first 1 down today.

2 drivers, plus a senior driver/supervisor showing them the route!

Looks like theyve lost a couple of the newer E200s and replaced at least one with a 57 plate Solo. The quality just keeps improving 🤣

From the 11th April Chaserider's fare's are changing. They are going to be offering a multi operator network ticket valid on Select and Midland Classic for £5.70 (Adult) and £4.10 (Child). They are also getting rid of the current 'Cannock and Stafford' zone tickets with the introduction of new 'bargain' zones in Stafford, Cannock, and Lichfield.

SoCannock to Stafford and back is going up by £1.50??? Christ that'll entice passengers lol

Must admit I was considering a trip to Penkridge Market,  basically for a change, while I'm on a break from work after tomorrow.

Under the old system, Penkridge was under the Cannock zone wasn't it?

(Must admit I'm struggling to find a reason to go to Cannock or anywhere at the moment, thanks to this ####.

Basically I've lost my mojo!)

I did a post on Next Door about this, & some woman replied, saying her husband works for Chaserider & he didn't know about this!

No.1 and another unidentified white e200 probably No.2 working for Centrebus Leicester on a Leicester university open day shuttle service.
