Green bus extended the 8 to cannock usually running it with leopard MFV 31T ( which had no working speedometer toward the end of its life!!) In its later days. Arriva started the 69 to compete with the essington bit and then introduced the 68 which went through long knowle. Shortly after when green bus closed down for good arriva withdrew both services. This led to loads of complaints as essington would be without a bus service and the council  funded the 68
