3606 knackered repainted crap, 2702 belches out smoke and death rattle, any number 1 sb200 bag of crap from leicester, 3739 recycled crap from leicester, any of the new buses hardly ever on 1,2,70,560 and most other routes except 60,825 and staffords always shitty Darts and you pay stupid prices just to travel 4 miles to cannock. £4.40 (2 fares) cannock-bloxwich, train £3.20 return off peak (and its the same price from Walsall) still would pay that even if London Midland are having problems.

Are the Citaros just gonna be used on Tamworth Local services? Wouldve thought itd make more sense to run them on the Birmingham routes and demote the Omnilinks to locals. Its mad how their locals are being operated by smart new buses when you compare it with the absolute piles of crap they run on Cannock and Stafford locals! the 25/26 and 33 used to be operated by branded vehicles, yes they were crap Darts but they were more modern at the time. Now they just have any crap put on them. The Pye Greens get anything from MPDs to older SPDs to SB120s ( interiors of which are a disgrace!) to B10BLEs to a decker! the 31/2/3 are fast following suit minus the decker. I wish theyd sell Cannock garage to another operator who could maybe run it better! And thats never ever going to happen now theyve bloody got a monopoly! :-(((

OmniLinks are more suitable to the Interurban routes, you wouldn't want to spend an hour+ on a Citaro, they've got Urban90 style seats.
