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

Anybody know whether the 74 and 826 have reverted to normal route now that the A34 out of Stafford has been reopened ?

Bustimes.org indicates they are following the normal line of route

Well, Commander 187 has been withdrawn, leaving only the one with Select Bus as the likely sole survivor of Arriva's 06-plate Commanders from Leicester.

Is there a chance, they've finally got on top of things?

Long term vehicles no longer off road, staffing sorted, journeys no longer missed, that sort of thing?

Or am I being too naive?

I hope your right, the passengers deserve a reliable service

162 also withdrawn. Werent both these buses off road for ages having a lot of work done prevuously? The other two door streetlite hasnt ever been back in use and 799 has been off the road since about September. Shame, 799 was quite nice to travel on

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

799 isn't withdrawn. It will be back at some point

Definitely naive especially when it comes to staffing 😂 Chaserider are very much a if your face fits and how far up managements arse you are, not if you can do the job know a lot of people that have left due to poor management decisions and a lot of favouritism and backstabbing goes on in the company.

62 goodness knows what's going on with it. It's still up at the engine place in Stafford. 799 is sat on the yard tho having a major overhaul

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