This is Arriva they don't do spares lol. Thats why theres nearly always at least one pulsar on the 1 or 2/2a.  The 25 has enough 63 plate pulsars 5 branded plus two unbranded ones one of which is usually on there mon to fri. The 70, does it ever really warrant a decker? Technically they could even use them on the 62 & 68 if they were desperate

68 has a low bridge doesn't it? At peak times, the 70 has quite healthy loadings (Well at the Wolverhampton End anyway)

Low bridge on the 68. Over the course of the day, one decker on the 70 wouldn't hurt. Come on, Burton have 2 B9's they dont need, plus they use them on MPD routes so why do people make such a flap about Cannock. Plus as long as a bus turns up, why should it matter?

Deckers waNt f#####g off, heaps of s##t, always breaking down, has no1 told arriva that watsons are just up the road

Bob

Yea but theyre needed for staffords and will be even more so shortly.  Theyre better than Wednesfields god awful heaps. Wouldn't wish them on cannock lol. Theyre pretty smooth n quiet as well, better than hearing a13 yr old commander screeching down the A34 struggling at speed !

3706 now at Cannock.

Bob

Looks like a broken down streetlite on Dartmouth ave in cannock right by new penk rd junction.  Traffic having a right game going round it! Hazards on driver not in cab

Bob

Caught the 7.50 74 to stafford.  An uncomfortably rammed decker that was full up and down with standees downstairs.  Lets hope they always keep a spare decker. A single decker would have had to.stop picking up passengers surely?

Bob

People were sat on the stairs and had to move when people wanted to get off!

There are signs in bus shelters in Stafford regarding the changes to the 75 explaining that they've listened and they are sorry. The 75 is also going to be free to all passengers on the entire route on tuesday only as a way of saying sorry. There are also timetables for the 54 above these just to add.

Does anyone know if Cannock are still doing Drayton Manor tickets on the X60 for £21??

Bob

I make the two remaining mpds as FK52 MML & SNO3 LGC. It seems weird considering cannock used to be inundated with the things! To keep just two though,  anyone know if theyve been kept for a particular service?  15 to boney hay maybe?

Ck

I would think one is for the 15 and one is for the tesco free bus

Bob

Ah yea I forgot about the tesco service.  Makes sense to keep SN03 as well.  One of the slightly nicer darts

2209 has lost it's Tesco branding, sure it was on the 34 on friday

Bob

Theres a W-VGJ DB250 at cannock at the minute
