The regular bus on the 63, 182, hasnt been used for ages. Always sounded knackered though

I'm sure Centrebus or D&G would have 2 spare. The 3 ex Cardiff buses are buslink too apparently

Even Centrebus and D&G are short of buses and from what I've heard yes the ex Cardiff scanias are bus links

The Stevensons livery buses are actually Bus Link vehicles, who are a separate company

Who were involved in a joint bid with Chaserider for the 63, so are not on loan to Chaserider

It seems odd that the Staffordshire website doesn't mention that.

Do Chaserider still paint vehicles? You wouldn't think Chaserider run buses in Walsall the amount of times a Centrebus livery pulls up I've seen.

They normally do but they're using another place atm as they haven't got the space to paint them. However the centrebus buses in Walsall is because trying to get a spare euro 6 bus to cover 630 - 632 with 630 still off the road is hard when 1 isn't reliable enough to be over Walsall, 64 being 64, 505 for the 35A. TFWM not allowing the Telford buses over there, 799 not making the turn out of the bus station oh and plus the 3 needing a euro 6 bus. Its quite hard to pull them off for paint

Is 169 not allowed? Thats a red Metrocity, and the 2016 E200's?

It's not a good look really for them, doesn't help going into Cannock and seeing a load of liveries. All over green and all over white.

Sending 1 bus for paint at a time usually works, they also have the Evora's, so I'm not buying they 'we don't have enough Euro 6 vehicles.'
