Seen 3781 and 3782 in Stafford this week also in the new livery repainted out of 5 branding.

Noted mini Enviro 2150 working the 5/6 in Stafford yesterday afternoon. I've never seen such a small vehicle working this service before.

Usually pulsars with the occasional centro or streetlite.  The E200 would have struggled to cope with loadings especially between Newport & Telford.

I believe it replaced a broken down pulsar

2546 parked up and abandoned in a layby on the A4169 just outside Shifnal.  Presumably broken down?

Rich-82

Telford pulsar 3748 YJ59BVM involved in accident in madeley Telford been rear ended and front damage to and only just been repainted as well

Are there any plans to introduce a new service or reroute existing services to some of the new Shifnal estates?  I've noticed some bus stops on one of the estates.

Maybe Banga might consider diverting their 891 through these new estates

The stop had the Arriva logo on it so I wouldn't have thought so.

what ever happened to the old 584 route between Wolves and Bobbington?

I think Wednesfield operated this route using Mercedes Vario's.  I would imagine that it was withdrawn due to low usage.

It got withdrawn in the tender changes which WPH won the 586/587 in the late 2000s I think.

The 586/7 ended up at Bridgnorth Arriva and got at one stage allocated Merc 1905.

Wednesfield never operated it. It was Bridgnorth outstation/Telford.

2745 (LF02PLX) has been in Telford today operating the 7s - don't know if this just a loan or a transfer
