Does the evening 68's come off Pye Greens now? I've seen the late night 68 every night this week and it has been a Pye Green branded Pulsar.

I don't think late 68's are off PG's. Think its just random selection of what's in the yard. But could have changed again as not long back it was an MX61 Pulsar every night which had been on the X60 earlier that day.

I wonder if the Sept network review will tie in with the further cuts being imposed by Staffs CC from the same month.  They were on the front page of this weeks chronicle. 2/2a 67 68 70 23 amongst those listed. Must be the daytime 2/2A affected as the evening is run for free by Arriva

The evening 2 in Cannock is not run for free by Arriva, subsidised by SCC.

Bob

Since when??? After Arriva had a breakdown when NX won the 2, they ran it without subsidy did they not?

Yes because it works that way Bob...

2200 Bus

Citaro 3003 has arrived here from Tamworth.

Bob

For the X60 presumably? Least 3004 wont be an odd man out now. Nice buses too. Do the X60 on a commander or pulsar and do it on a merc. The Merc is 100X better.

PG branded pulsar regularly on the 2114 60 Lichfield-Cannock last week much to my relief :-)

Bob

Why was it much to your relief? Lol

Busman Jamie

Bob
