History
In early 2007, Arriva Midlands North purchased an independent bus operator, Chase Coaches for a 'significant' sum of money. Despite being based in Cannock the majority of services operated by the company were in the Wolverhampton and Walsall areas and were operated by Leyland Nationals.
Shortly after the takeover and to minimise confusion a new ChaseLinx branding was introduced, not just to buses on the ex-Chase routes, but to all routes operating from the Cannock depot (where Chase Bus Service operations also moved to after the takeover).

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The custard is setting; meanwhile
I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“There is no history of how bad became better.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The principal office of history I take to be this: to prevent virtuous actions from being forgotten, and that evil words and deeds should fear an infamous reputation with posterity.”
—Tacitus (c. 55–c. 120)
