Difficult times?
As well as closing Stafford garage, cutting back at the fringes seems to be the order of the day at Arriva Midlands North, some of it seemingly due to competition. During July the Telford - Wolverhampton direct service (8) was cut back to run Telford - Shifnal only. Banga Buses of Wolverhampton had ...

Re: The X18
I think that the X18 is scheduled to be entirely double deck - Stratford depot received three Scania/Enviro 400s from Northampton when it was extended and doubled to half hourly in June - but I have heard that other vehicles can sometimes appear.
