Spotted a few of the Pheasey 997's today with the new via points. They now display 'Pheasey' on the top line and the new via point being 'Stanhope Way' which is completely stupid as thats where the Pheasey shorts terminate, why couldn't they just have 'via Perry Barr and Old Oscott'? Would make more sense than Stanhope Way.

Looks like 6722 broken down in Cannock on Walsall Road, by the first stop after Cannock Bus Stn

Is there any truth in the rumour that the 8 might be extended to Cannock?

Through Norton Canes? Makes sense if there is a clamour for it.

I've said for a few weeks now it hasn't came back and the number 8 is the same route up until Brownhills so I reckon they will replace the 3 hourly. Not sure why NX copied the route round Clayhanger.

1772 - (WA)X51

@CL I'm guessing it was the morning Dynamic Spare that's at Scott Arms, as judging by bustimes.org 6741 broke down at 07:34 at Alexander Stadium and 1772 was in service at Scott Arms for 07:40. Looks like it's finished now though.
