358* and another were ex ludlows and are shown on the fleet list as at MK. Being 55 plates I got excited, however it appears it's the Volvo B7RLE look a likes that are moving to Cannock. Very dissapointing

I'd have those Scanias at Tamworth over the Citaros in a heartbeat....they're beasts!

The Volvos were prob amongst the better of Cannocks fleet ( despite never even having a retrim in 12 yrs resulting in pretty smelly seats!) So hope the Scanias are half decent. Average fleet age must be shocking

Scania are different model to Tamworth ones , CK could not keep Scanias out before when they ran a small number , have to wait & see !!

Yes and they were 3 year old Omnilinks as opposed to 13 year old buses!

3510-12 that Cannock once had are in comparison nearing around the 12 year mark now, I'm sure Oswestry would be happy to see them leave in preference of more SB200's.

The Scanias are at Cannock for storage and nothing more.

Will anything replace the missing Volvos??

I'd so love to have a go in one, always been a big fan on Solars

As service levels increase (not the 1st June changes but maybe the next round) I expect the Volvos will come back from Milton Keynes so no need to replace them.

Are there any plans to refurbish the fleet?

With all due respect bob operators throughout the country are in survival mode I dont think anyone is thinking of spending valuable money & resources on refurbs at this present time

Not even thought about it recently.
