Well from 3rd jan the 74/75 will have a pvr of 6 & they only have 4 deckers so I think we'll see a lot more dafs on the route then

[Bob]

They might transfer a couple more deckers in?

[Busman Jamie]

dont be daft bob, they dont use the 4 they have now lol

[Steveminor]

Probably cause they csnt fix the 4 they have fast enough

[Bob]

It's ridiculous for a deckered service not to even have no spare!

[Bob]

Maybe they should swap them for deckers that aren't unreliable sheds lol

[Steveminor]

They weren't sheds till cannock got them.
Tamworth depot seem far more capable engineering wise.

[Bob]

Their reliability was allegedly not exactly sparkling at Tamworth too

[Bob]

It's a shame because in comparison to a Commander ( especially the older examples )screaming and struggling on the fast sections of the routes they're actually nice buses to be on.i caught 3704 on the X70 today still sounds awful even now sat near the back you could barely hear yourself think

[Busman Jamie]

4204/6 were the worse and were kept off 110

To be honest the best thing arriva could do is sell the midlands operation. Poor maintenance poor timekeeping/reliability poor customer service a we can do whatever we like & who's going to stop us attitude. They're a complete joke the lot of them.

But who could buy them without upseting the Monopolies people?

Even Arriva had a problem when they bought Midland.

Stagecoach

Split it up into different sections then first take tamworth stagecoach take cannock & nx take stafford that should keep monopoly commission happy as there would be separation between the groups.
