Quote from: winston on May 26, 2023, 07:46:51 PMI understand Rotala looked at Chaserider a while ago but weren't interested in making an offer.

I suspect it's unlikely there would be a bidding war for Chaserider....
Well theyre a bit of a joke of an operation.buses broke down on 826 828 today, the 20 past 2 74 was a no show , but they have at least sent a twin doir e200 from cannock to run on 74, but its like 10 min ahead of the next one lol. Feel sorry for the people waitimg for whatever 826 shouldve turned into 74 on arrival in stafford , with it being hourly

Bob

It was MMC no 2 that broke down on 826, that old white volvo had also given up the ghost on there about 8am this morning

Bob

Mmc no 2 didnt manage  the first trip on the 3 this morning and broke down on route to Cannock. Theyre not having a very good day so far, 166 Solo SR broke down on a 71 and didnt make the full trip which left a gap between the 10.15 and 12.15 Wolves to Cannock

Yes, that's apparently going for scrap eventually once it's been stripped of parts for the other Evolutions

Chaserider are renting some space in Delta Way to another company, so don't get too excited thing Chaserider have some different vehicles next week

Something seriously wrong with the 70 today.there hasnt been one for almost three hours from Cannock. And as usual absolutely nothing on the Chaserider social media.  They could at least inform passengers to be fair

Very heavy traffic off M6 towards Featherstone think there were an accident as I saw ambulances going from M6 roundabout that way

To add insult to injury, they sent Soko 124 to run the final 70 from Wolves to Cannock, which was obvs already extremely late, the bus had been pi##ing out oil in the bus stn this afternoon then later was sat with its engine cover up. It brok,e down near Shareshill. Of all the buses to send....
