They have had it for some time but it seems to have escaped mention in this thread.

V532GDS was seen yesterday - I belive there are at least two different farms are involved, one parks up at Tesco and the other goes back to the farm and returns to pick up opposite the station as GDS did.

There are 4 soft fruit farms to the west of Stafford, all of which farm some land remote from their base and use buses to transport workers.

The farm which parks its vehicles at Tesco whilst the workers shop is Littywood, which is also the only one of the four farms to show the farm identity on the vehicles

What was 2449 just went past Stafford station, think it is now registered MUY517X. Looks a right state but at least its still going, haven't seen it for a couple of years now.

The farm workers transport is getting newer than most of the Public Buses in Stafford!
