Well that was short and sweet...what was the point of transferring them to CK in the first place?  What will we be having to replace them?

Sb120's.

Staffords? In an exchange?  Cannock wont have many darts left at all by the looks of things

Cadets have always been a handful. I once met the engineering manager of Burton a couple of years ago, he told me that the ex London ones had problems with the electrics. As a means to try and deter you from slagging off the usual garages

With respect cannock struggle to maintain generally  reliable bus types like B10BLEs (3619 anyone? ) etc so christ knows how theyll cope with problematic ones...

Have I missed something are there planned changes to the 75/76 if so what and when

2715 was parked up near Queensville Island yesterday lifeless and then at Gaol Square around 1900 saw an SPD on tow. 2745 has a few flickering lights.

However

The SPD's are still mint and the vibrations/rattles on 2714 have been sorted

Both X25 branded Versas were on locals for the evening (Friday 20th)

Never seem to see the notorious BU51 MPD's now apart from 2290

Thought id have a waffle because it might just cheer me up

[Bob]

Isnt 2715 now Cannocks? ?

2722 even

Theyve been supposedly quite unreliable at stafford and were supposed to be headed for cannock in exchange for 55 plate darts.  Doesnt make sense Darts are used on interurban routes at cannock so why move them to stafford in exchange for something older.....

[tphi12000]

2722 even

2715 is Cannock as reported previously
