Cannock Garage

[arrifirststage]

I realise that Stafford is actually only an outstation of Cannock but is Wednesfield an outstation also,or a garage in it's own right?

[Bob]

Garage in its own right. Only full sized buses are deckers. All singles are darts/mpd darts/e200 or solos

[Bob]

Does anyone know when the supposed new buses are due to arrive for cannock?  And what they will replace?  Rumour is the b10s are going, but theyve just been allocated 2 more of them, yet theyve been in the paintshop for WEEKS!

[arrivaaston]

W107/8EWU could possibly be joining the trainig fleet, V338MBV is to be believed as w/drawn and there's an order of new buses due December/January

[Bob]

Nooooo their far to good for the training fleet! !! Given the shite they operate in service

[Bob]

Its in a right state, caught it in lichfield a couple of months ago its the one that had the bumper held on with string

[arrivaaston]

2348 will either end life at cannock, go wednesfield with sister 2347 or stafford with sisters 2345/2346

[Bob]

Is it in better nick than sister bus S351 YOG?

[Bob]

Are they not the ex london ones for spares?

[arrivaaston]

The two red deckers ar cannock are the for spares and will eventualy be scrapped

[arrivaaston]

2743 noticed back at cannock from her stint at Shrewsbury, noticed earlier on Pye Green Circulars and new arrival 2348 noticed on 32's

[Bob]

Werent 2 of those supposed to be transferred to stafford, to modernise ( in the loosest terms lol) the fleet there???

[Bob]

Theyre at cannock but haven't entered service.  Doubt they will.  If theyre getting rid of the v reg b10bles and apparently scrapping them ( which is mad considering the other low quality vehicles they keep repairing and putting back into use obly for them to break down again days later) why put two others into use


Language, Timothy! Thanks, LS

Just seen it rammed on a walsall bound 33. Looks pretty tatty interior wise

I cant see them scrapping all the b10 maybe  one or two but most of them have probably still got a few years life left yet.  My mate says 107 is still in the paint shop and 108 is still parked in the yard
