Are they getting anything for their core Cannock /interurban network to replace the more clapped out members of the fleet?

I heard the same but things can always change. They can't keep the oldest buses on the longest routes for ever

Scrapped, went for a new engine but told Chaserider there was more wrong than right and it would cost way too much to repair
