Isn't that odd to see darts and volvo's on cannocks sapphire routes mate. If a streetlite appeared on the 1/2 that would be classed as an odd working :P

Not too unusual as it's probably come off from the daytime 16s as happens normally, which is usually Enviros or Solo SRs

No, this route is operated by Shrewsbury garage who normally allocate versa's to it so it couldn't have come off the 16.  Shrewsbury don't have any enviro's.  I have never seen Solo's on it before.

There are shorts operated by Telford in the late afternoon on schooldays which operate between Wellington and Telford Centre - that is what I assumed would have happened

6009 working the 519 (Shrewsbury-Newport). Usually worked by versa's.

[PointerDart]

2702 on the 5/5A (Telford - Stafford) today covering for 3781 which was suffering from a fault this morning

[Grinder]

There was quite a mix of vehicles on the 5 yesterday apart from 2702, I also saw a Centro, a Streetlite and a couple of 59 plate Pulsars but none of the 63 plate branded Pulsars. Another oddity was the positioning of the 'Connecting Telford' strapline.  On at least one it was underneath the windows and towards the front.  Sorry can't give fleet nos as I was driving.
