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

excellent  

Wonder if 748 will be far behind

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

Whats happened to evora 638 not seen it on 60s for over a week now. Decent bit of kit to travel on are them evoras 

I hope your right, the passengers deserve a reliable service

828 is still pretty hit and miss on reliability,  still mainly old knackers on all the time. 

seem to be keeping them 2 new evoras off the 74/828 circuit already so guess no vehicle improvments going forward to 74/828 

6501 new evora has been done as the Christmas bus this year saw it earlier today looks good 

And a new MOT, not used since May, very brave coming up to 17 years old, let hope it lasts.

It does look smart on the pic tbf.  Was this the one that's had a new engine recently.

The 2 new evora didnt last long on 74/828 circuit then   back scrap yard challenge again other than a usual 36 route volvo Evolution 

Nah they're meant for 828 but due to them having a shortage of euro 6 buses that aren't Telfords. They're being used for Walsall today

Thats the downside of having branded buses i guess it limits there use on other runs/work. The new chaserider livery is far better & brighter than that drab telford garb in my opinion but guess thats what telford council want.

6502

thats the one lol  looks like they for route 36 

Cannock are due another 5 I think 2 this month including 6501 2 next month and the other next year I think last I heard was 2 we're at longton (6501) and presume there is another there and 2 we're in Egypt.

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

6501 (BU74 YRN) is out for the first time today

Was my transport to Stafford earlier today - lovely motor :-)

Indeed it is

cool  be on pye green monday then lol    BU74YRN seen it earlier looks smart  

Fleet News -

795 has transfered to Longton after being on loan at Chaserider

6501 is on its way down to Chaserider to be prepared for service

5202 is now out in service

6501 one of the 2 new evoras?

31 out of 60 buses are younger than 12 years old and they're due more brand new buses in the new year including a couple of electric buses and replacing buses for the 826,828 routes. I'd hardly say they're not investing in cannock.

I use the 828 alot and its usually 16 to 18 year old buses, and old end of life unsuitable small solos - left stranded twice last week with no shows again on 828 - couple nice evoras on 828 sunday shifts today tho so deffo a improvment on the Sunday side and nice to have the sunday buses back too - roll on the new year then lol  Travelled on the 826 yesterday and it was that old 128 solo - jeez wot a old crock that thing is
