Last step entry buses

Is 3468 a staff bus nowadays? If it is its technically withdrawn from normal service. Any news on 4798, 4800 upwards? These may be going to Wardle to replace the last step double decks.

No, 3468 still runs on normal services, not just the staff bus. 4787 is technically withdrawn from normal service - as its only used on school service and staff shuttle, in addition to the football service.

No! but I do know that 4787 is a low-floor bus, so it's out of place.

I don't suppose 4651 and 4652 are still at cannock are they?

Bob · April 04, 2013, 08:29:27 PM

Yep still totally wasted on pye green circulars

arrivaaston · April 05, 2013, 02:44:39 PM

I believe 4650 has returned to Wardle

Wardle Volvo Olympian 4687 (WBZ 8737) worked the 12.00 and 13.30 Route 61 from Hanley to Tunstall today.

Ashley · April 05, 2013, 08:53:37 PM

I don't suppose anybody would know what the chances are of some First and or Wardies Olympians being out tomorrow?
