The 84 really does need deckers, particularly during the shopping hours on a Saturday, if not during the week.

But aye the DLAs are totally wrecked now, they've hard a hard life in london then moved oop north onto longer distance more rural routes.

Lets remember they were mainly used to pottering around north london at much slower speeds on better roads than we have. Then shoved onto rural routes around cheshire has done em no favours. [undefined=undefined]Copey arny idea what the 09 plate deckers could poss be?[/undefined] Thank christ they're finally sorting out the 84 timetable it needs it!

Think reason for the monumental delays on 38s is there's always a lot of traffic either getting into or out of crewe throughout the day tbh. Also congleton seems to be a snarl up area, there can be massive ques at times going down rood hill from the ambulance station down to the lights at tesco where the 38 heads into town always seems busy.

Copey how much longer have we got deckers on the 84s now? Can't be that long as the schools/colleges go bk in about 3-4 weeks, gotta say though that the 29/31/37s have been soooooo quiet over the hols. Hope CWC get their arses in gear soon & get northwich town roadworks complete ASAP if not it'll be hell in few weeks time.

Nice to have 2425 on the 37 for once today, it's a nice bus, but it's rattles a lot at the back, and is a little slow. 2503 was a nice ride home tonight, quite quick and didn't rattle!
