some of them telford mmcs are bit small for the busier 828/74's times i guess, but a vast improvement on albert steptoe & sons daily unreliable scrap yard operatiion its become. Jeez imagine having ya name on the o licence for compliance 

If chaserider purchased new E400 Mmcs with WiFi, wooden flooring, leather seats, panoramic roof and charging points and ran every 5 minutes you and Bob would still find something to moan about. Maybe the shade of red would be wrong. You 2 are just sitting on your keyboards waiting for something bad to happen. Sad really

The new inbound evoras are for the 74 as Staffordshire council are paying for them. Be interesting to see what will come for the 5

Edit - thinking about it i wouldnt be surprised if they are used on it

I thought the Evora's were for the 828 as the 74 was going to run separately? With the Centrebus group  investing massively in new/newish buses lately I'm sure chaserider will benefit with newer reliable buses soon

Last week was down to all evoras staying in the depot as all were getting a deep clean, 638 is off the road atm, but usually on a Sunday all evoras are out which is 6 with normally 5202 a couple of Telfords and 496-497-498 and 499 are normally on stand by as spare busses,  the net evoras that are due are to replace the old Volvos and they are due to start arriving this month so hopefully by the end of may they should all have been delivered and in service, they are struggling on the yard with space so at least 5 old buses will be leaving.

Stop talking sense and telling the truth. People in here only want doom and gloom

You've got another 5 Evora's on order remember

More evoras are due to come this year. 6501 & 2 were the first 2 of a batch

I know. It just bores me when people make silly comments and then put Lol at the end as if this justifies stupidity

74 / 828 circuit be upgraded to solos the way its going soon with all the old heavweights bowing out one by one lol

Or they might be getting new buses in the near future?

It seems First have stolen a March on D&G in tranche 3 of BSIP. Taking over evening routes 2,5, and 9. Also running a route 40 alongside D&Gs 40 and a new route 501.
D&G picked up route 27a.
Stanton's not won any extra work (not sure they bid)

Does anyone know when the new app is available. Supposed to of been from February 1st

At this rate they'll soon be running the 63 without bus links help.

Depends how much carolean have bidded to run the contract for and how much these buses would cost to lease/purchase there might be no profit in running this route, in which case why bother.

Youd of thought they'd check availability of vehicles and costs before entering a bid

I want actually meaning that Carolean would be violating TfWM rules. I was just saying as they're growing it would be beneficial to adopt an identity

If they're going to expand they need to consider an actual livery and gain an identity

5602 Tracking on pye green late this afternoon so presume the 2nd new evo

6502

Why? Chaserider is Cannock

Because Crewe are due 3 Evoras. Cannock are due some more Evoras next year I believe

The New Chaserider livery

That ones for Crewe then
