Ah, any sign of 13/2373?

[Capitalpotter]

Not sure where 13 is

Not sure where 13 is

13/15 are 2 darts that have never been used since D&G took over Cannock, at least 1 of them has been raided for parts

So by that you're suggesting they haven't got enough buses for the work they currently have? Don't forget they gave work away to Select Bus at the same time. Would hope they're going to replace Solos with these.

Doubt it Solos were the first things repainted...

D&G will be operating a few trips on the 64 from the 25th of April between  Market drayton and Hanley.

Noted a D&G solo in Cannock yesterday with E2 on the blind. I have since discovered this is an Alton Towers employee service which serves Stafford, Cannock, Rugeley, and Uttoxeter

D&G doing Crewe-Stafford rail replacement with Versa.s - I hope this is sufficient as Avanti hve made no provision for West Midlands-Scotland passengers on the day before people are back at school.

I'd have hoped people wouldn't be relying on travelling at the last minute given all the disruption this summer.

Yes, I know I am expecting too much.

D & G Bus have registered replacement routes for three services threatened by the planned closure of Arriva North West's Winsford depot. They would replace the 31, 37 and 84 Arriva services.

Stagecoach have also registered the 84, including Crewe-Nantwich shorts

The Stagecoach service is due to start on 23rd April 2023 and is registered under the Ribble Motor Services licence. Nothing on D&G yet.

Enviro YX16ODG appears to be the first addition to cover ex-Arriva work - 90 according to bustimes, which has ODJ as 91, but I didn't see that.
