Thought so hence the reduced need for MPD.  Beats me as to why they've gone to Tamworth a previously excellent garage?

Are they running Tamworth in line with Cannock  and Wednesfield now? The fact that Cannock have lost all their mods almost would suggest that the 15 and the 19/20 are definitely going shortly

All,

They are purely put in place to help out while the High Wycombe B7's get a full refurb.

Bob

OK but what will Cannock need Mpds for after October then? Their busiest services lol?

2289/91 are temporary at Tamworth and I think 2159

2159 has gone.

Bob

2289/2159 both desperately need scrapping. Both absolutely terrible

I thought 2159 was 1 of the better darts

In fairness though, how often does the route get full? The main reason for a full size bus is they haven't got any small singles at Tamworth.

That was ridiculously small , saw it this morning on the 765 down Lichfield Road. Surely Arriva won't be using for services unless they are revamping the routes to go down narrower roads.

Another absolute she'd.  That's why it was barely used as anything other than the staff bus at Stafford.  And that came from a driver

Noticed last week that 3022 now has an orange front LED display instead of its white one

Busman Jamie

1of the cannock streetlites also has orange led blind rather than its usual white blind
