That message was from way back in July WilliamPosh has confirmed plans changed and 4 are now for Cannock

Its about time!  After years theyve actually realised that the staffords require deckers

@bob unless they're for Pye Greens?? :-)

I bet theyd be used on there from time to time. I tell you what's a bit strange though,  historically staffords have been busy with people going to and from the hospital but new cross shortly take over cannock hospital so all the people who currently go to stafford will mainly be going to wolves...maybe the 68 will get an upgrade :-p

Is there likely to be a timetable change on the 68 at some point?

There isn't much of an evening service from what I remember reading.(Is there a Sunday service?)


Bob

There's not a sunday service no. The evening service is quite handy if your out for a few pints in wolves as it runs later back than thge 70

There's only a ten minute difference between the last 70 and 68 off Wolvertrampton. The frequency of the evening 68 is warranted because of the low patronage

Does anyone know when Telford's new StreetLites will be in service?
This is a personal appeal... For Pete's Sake just save the #!@?$&% Scania's - don't let them follow the Dennis Falcons!

I thought the last 68 was just before 11 and the last 70 around 2245 only goes as far as Featherstone

Are you sure about them being sapphire spec? As far as I'm aware they're just standard E400's unless plans changed?

Bob

Ahhh. I had problems getting the timetable up. I did get one up from another site and it said Featherstone.  Maybe its outa date lol
