Just seen an absolutely rammed commander coming into cannock on the 74. It does beg the question why transfer deckers in for the route if a lot of the time they arent on there or why not have at least one spare?

3808 and 3809 should be out tomorrow.

What we having

2276(assume its a Cannock vehicle!) broken down on Bloxwich High Street by junction of Old Lane, hazards flashing, parked half on pavement.

Was it a spare / substitute vehicle for the 1?

Couldve been on the 2/2A maybe? Brought to you by Sapphire lol....Say hello to wifi, leatherette, and extra legroom. ..or failing that a knackered old dart when were short of streets####s, guaranteed reliability.

Dont forget that the 2 & 2a operate via my road during the day while the 1 stays on Bloxwich Road / High Street !

Cant imagine even them putting a bus like that on a premium ( said in the most loose of terms) route though, theres a lot of far better and more suited capacity wise vehicles.

Shows you Arriva don't actually read the Facebook messages, it's a 'copy & paste' job!

I asked them what was up with 2276 & the reply I got back was 'I'm sorry. We hope it didn't delay your journey', to which I replied ' I wasn't catching it. I just wondered what was up with it!'

11.12 31 to rugeley not running due to breakdown issues. Ffs. Cant even run a half hourly service reliably its broken down in cannock bus station! What no spare bus when the garage is 5 mins away? Pathetic

I then caught 2702 back in to cannock on the 31 from the stop opposite, which had standees all the way to the front so I had to stand in the cab area ( do they not realise by now that a bus that size is not suitable for the route ffs?), and the emergency warning light was flashing in the cab which I pointed out to the driver, he said "I know Yeah theres something up with the suspension its bouncing up and down terrible but they say its alright so.....". A great way to run a bus service eh....
