The new buses on the pye greens have made inroads into the numbers of breakdowns a bit for sure

Dart 2228 W228SNR was working from Cannock today on 68

I was wondering what route it was on going down Lichfield Road! Thought was a late running 19 at first

[Bob]

Its probably just been at cannock having a bit of work done or something

2228 stilll in use at Cannock on the 70 this morning.

[Bob]

Anyone been on W107/108/109 EWU? Ive always wondered why you can barely hear the Voiths on them? Especially on W109....if you compare them to nxwms B10L's you can really hear it

[Bob]

My mate told me that V610 DBC has been reinstated at cannock,  what with that and W228 SNR, the borrowed b6 a couple of weeks ago are cannock having a vehicle shortage or something?

Its gonna be interesting the next few months to see whether arriva up their game and continue with investment in cannock.  Theres rumours about new buses for the 1 & 2, but stuff like the 32/33 needs some money spending on it etc. Id be surprised if they splashed out on new buses for the 2/2a though,  its not exactly a busy service is it? Also a lot of cannock's fleet are approaching the end of their lives bu51 darts/remaining volvos/the route 1 buses etc and will need major refurbishment. ...

Cannock will be making the routes 1, 2 and 2a sapphire by the end of this year. 

[Bob]

Only cannock could 'upgrade' a route to sapphire using bloody Streetlites. By all accounts their supposed to be terrible buses lol and ive read somewhere the legroom is supposed to be non existent. And aint they like the ugliest bus around at the moment lol? Why would they upgrade the 2/2a nobody uses them? The 1 is a popular service though.

[covlad27]

Ive no idea why the 2 and 2a.  It will be interesting to see what happens to the 2 service in a sunday running pye greenon a sapphire bus

[Bob]

The 825 number 2 to walsall has not turned up! !! Crap service as per!

[Bob]

Its finally come...the drivers excuse was 'sorry im late had a right game trying to find a suitable bus to take out'!!! What???? The evening number 2 doesnt come out of the garage? the FULL OF BUSES garage.  Im sorry but thats pathetic. ....the bus that came is a rough sounding sn o3 lgc

[Bob]

I did feel sorry for the driver though he was really stressed out,  almost missed a lady at a bus stop and had to slam on brakes and had to put up with people having a go when they got on.  And to make it worse hed got no change :-/

Does the 2 get many passengers evening & Sundays between Bloxwich & Walsall, including through passengers from Cannock?

Would've thought NX has that section sewn up.

Even though I'm currently paying money rather than flashing an NX pass at the moment, I normally wait for an NX so I can get a return.

Could the evening & Sunday 2's get away with terminating at Bloxwich?
