2406 2407 now at Cannock with 2447 2448 gone the other way to Thurmaston

One of those 05 plate Solos was really unreliable

2740 was noted back in Telford on Saturday, on route 7. Don't be fooled by it showing on the BusTimes tracker as still running at Cannock (as it was today) as it was running as fleetnumber '7000' when I saw it a few times (unless it moved back since Saturday!).

Bob

The 11am 70 from Longford Estate to Cannock hasnt turned up and the next to useless app says the next departure is 2.49 pm!

These are understood to have replaced 3761 and 3762 which are welcome additions at Oswestry  :)

Sounds like Cannock is continuing to be stripped of its most modern buses.

The Cannock fleet is an embarassment some of the vehicles particularly the 2006 plate Commanders and the 2008 plate Volvos are in desperate need of refurbishment. And the 1 to Walsall is now operated with tat!

Anyone heard anymore if a sale of Cannock is still on the cards? The newer fleetmoves out seem to suggest something's going on in the background

The reason for the Pulsars moving to Oswestry was to release Versas 2943/4 to Shrewsbury for increased Park & Ride requirements and increasing the allocation there by two. Oswestry I understand were offered more Scanias but insisted on Pulsars.

I don't dispute the reason for them leaving, but it's Cannock's newest fleet that has been raped & pillaged again.

Anyone got any idea what Cannock has had in return?
