Been fixing up a fleetlist for a project and noticed several fleetlist list 4 Caetano Numbuses 41594 LK05NNG 41595 and 41596 both appear on fleetlist with the registrations used by 41495 and 41496 but searches turn up nothing for all 3 as they are in full First Potteries livery acording to the fleetlists

Also you can use this tread to report news
Buses magazine report that the bus station at Hanley has just been refurbished. It could be interesting to go there and ride some First Potteries buses, and maybe Arriva Midlands Wardle ones too.
Lots of people claim its terrible for pictures plus your not allowed to take photos on site I myself havnt been there. I do maintain a fleetlist away from my current site to help myself out when editing pics but if you like i can link you to it

rriva old snd newI spent last Tuesday in the Potteries getting up to date with recent developments with PMT and Wardles. There is an increasing number of Wardles route being worked by a complete mixture of liveries. Arriva old and new plus Wardles old and new are much in evidence.

The new Hanley Bus Station is a new build across the road from the old which is lying derelict at the moment. The entrance and exit are through a single road so visibility is good although it gets a little crowded at times of mass departures.

On the vehicle front Newcastle have a third second hand Dart 43877 which joins 43875 and 6 on Newcastle locals. Otherwise not much has changed. The First new livery is taking a while here with the Unilink Volvos currently being done. 66851 and 2 are newly done.

Have 42893 and 42894 moved from Worcester within First Midlands? And is there any sign of 42892? I saw all 3 in Worcester on 23rd August. 42889-91, the first three of this batch of Darts, transferred to Rotala with the Kidderminster operation.
