i hope Cannock gets a few more deckers :-)

It is nice to see deckers in cannock that aren't from wardle but I do think there wasted on pye greens, as its been said before, maybe be ideal if the pye greens were half horly rather than every 12 mins!!

I think the other decker at cannock is 4792

Bob

its pity that Cannocks routes interwork, cos they could be used on the 60/70 and even the 1 if it was routed under the other bridge! I really hope the Stafford services do get converted!!!!

arrivaaston

The deckers could be used on the 70 route that interconnects with the 560 because I'm sure when travel did the 560 they used deckers and there used to be a decker used on the 31 rugeley to cannock route

Bob

The 31 goes up Brunswick road now so deckers would struggle. Plus the 70 is a busy route but the 560 & 76 which it interworks with are pretty quiet. Theres bound to be some service revisions coming up soon, cos Cannock havent had any for a while. I wonder if there is any truth in the rumour about the 75 being shortened

Westy

Is there much traffic between Cannock & Penkridge to justify shortening the route?

At least there's a Sunday service thesedays.

Green Bus/Warstones were Monday to Saturday daytimes only weren't they, from memory.


Bob

Its only rumour apparently, but it would make sense cos everyone would use the 76 which is not that busy currently

arrivaaston

Would make sense to do that with the 75 and decker the 74's as most people prefer that 1 2 stafford, and on the subject of green bus it used to run mon-sat but wasn't it changed to saturday only and even then wasn't it like every 3 hours summert daft like that and if deckers do come back for 74's surely arriva would have something more modern than a trident??

Bob

I reckon theyll put Gemini's from somewhere on it
