RE: First Potteries
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.
