Go to cannock arriva usually run their branded buses on the wrong routes. Makes for some quite interesting viewing tho :)

Seems to be alot of Route branded buses off route at Cannock Garage.

Seen the 74/5 VDL's on the 68 a few times now

Bob

One of the 74/75 buses was debranded so it could be used on all routes. But most of the time its used on stafford routes and the branded ones are allocated elsewhere. The route 1 branding has been incorrect for over 2 years though as most journeys start and finish in huntington but the branding has been on these buses since 2007 unchanged lol

Kevin

Technically counts i suppose... Midland Classic X12 branded bus on a rail replacement service on through Scott Arms earlier
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....
