And Wolverhampton sold more tickets than Stafford today.

It's actually our best year for some time this year

4710 and 4550 seen on amongst the last shuttles to Wolverhampton today

Tony

On the Monday buses are not specific to services, so most buses will appear at both Stafford & Wolverhampton depending on which queue is longest at Weston park

Can't seem to find last years thread on this subject so I appogise now for posting in this one. ]

I was just wondering now that Virgin have pulled the sponsorship for this event, will there be a festival this year with a new sponsor and would NX have the contract to run the shuttles again ?

@Tony will have the answer to this I'm sure  ;)

There is no 'contract' National Express always run it completely commercially. As for this year I don't know what's happening yet
