Well, first day back at work, after Covid isolation.



Seem to have caught,  on the first 1, an all white single decker,  that seems to be half luggage racks, half seating.

Bit OTT isn't it?

They're at Cannock to be painted and upseated

A very astute purchase. There's much criticism levelled at Chaserider, so the purchase and conversion of these buses should be welcomed.
Autofare 3 - the ticket that laughs in the face of contactless!

Are they intended for Cannock though or just there for work?

They've given it a go, you can't expect them to keep a bus service going if the passenger numbers aren't sustainable.

Don't take that as if I'm having a go, I'm just stating a point lol

Could it be they're combining routes to supplement the cancelled routes from last month?

Who knows, it would make sense for them to try and integrate places into the network without making new routes

For instance, if they really wanted to make Boney Hay work that bad they could just send the 62 through the estate instead of making a new route which they tried. I doubt it'd make any money but if they're that desperate they could give it a try. That's just one example of what they could try
