Never seen the 301 busy

I'd catch it if they had a 50p with a WM Travelcard thing like they used to.

Don't get why they withdrew that offer.

Isn't it all about bums on seats?

Like WMSNT
60p for travelcard

if they did that then theyed get less money from OAP's

2209 SN03LGC from Cannock, 2221 T51JJF from Burton, 2315 X523GGO from Cannock, 2345 S345YOG from Shrewsbury?? all on loan at Stafford today due to a severe shortage

[Bob]

How have they ended up with a severe shortage?  I remember when they were mainly dart, they had major reliability issues something like 10 breakdowns in a day which is bad when youve got a small fleet. Maybe the B6s are proving as unreliable?

Cannock is having 8 new buses ive been told.
They are mercedes and are for pye green circular and route 33

[Bob]

Citaros at cannock? Doubt it lol. Would 8 even cover the number of buses needed for those routes? Plus isnt the 33 nearly always operated by midibus sized buses?

[Ck]

Pye greens need 6 buses mon to fri and 5 on a sat and 33's need at least 4 so those new buses won't do both routes

[Bob]

It would be good to have some decent buses on the pye greens instead of a clapped out s-khn thats never had a working destination blind since its been there (!!) They just stick anything and everything on at the moment.  Worst being mpds lol

[covlad27]

Im not sure what mercedes they are as my friend who works there did not know

[covlad27]

There are some changes coming to route 33 by the way of extra time to allow a more reliable service, 32 roure is to be cancelled completey so I have been told

[Bob]

Preaumably the 33 will be extended to Hednesford then? Otherwise the hednesford to cannock section will be reduced to a half hourly 31

What about the 32 bit in Norton?  Last time they tried to withdraw that bit,  people had a moan & they had to change it back.

Ive just heard from my mate that the whole route is to be cancelled, including the norton bit.  He is not sure about the 33 running to Hednesford he hasnt heard that only that it is being given more time to get to Walsall 1hr 20 instead of 1 hr
