I've seen the branding and yes it does include Cannock and Hednesford!

Saw a 54 by stafford rail station leaving for wolves with a half decent load.  Also noticed a NX uniformed guy at chell rd bus stops handing out timetables. ..

Looking at the Running boards:

There is a 54/06 that comes out of garage at 22:00 then gets back at 23:43 (Must do a trip to I54)

28/01 does 28's in the day then goes onto late 54/154

There are still short workings to Pendeford Business Park/i54 on a 6 board (6/02 I think) and 11/06 (Which does a 54,a school, 11's then 11's 32's and 33's at night)

There is a school RB (794/**) that comes out of garage then does 54's/154's then goes onto a PM 794A. This is allocated a B7RLE.

Also some minor allocation changes:
It appears several 82 boards are now booked as Tridents
The 25 now has at least two boards that are booked B7RLE's

I've been told by the road rep this afternoon that the 82's main allocation is to be tridents due to the withdrawals of the spectras.

What a waste, a bus coming from PL for one late journey, surely a bus coming out of service could have been allocated it!

According to the 154 timetable on nwm website, it's Stand 1 to Wolverhampton, and Stand 7 to Hednesford.

Stand 7 towards Hednesford
Stand 1 towards Wolverhampton

[Bob]

That means nothing to me lol. Stand 1, would that be the 68/70 stand?

[P419 EJW]

Walk around and look at the stands, they have displays "Stand 1", etc. It's not difficult, lol. :)
