(17 Sep 2015, 7:42 am)Jimmi I'm going to hazard a guess these will have both been on the extra morning working of the 58 which then drops onto the 110/111/112 circuit after it arrives in Durham, I saw green Our Bus branded Solo in Woodham working the Newton Aycliffe schools service 879 yesterday afternoon which also runs off the 110/111/112.

Solo YJ06YRE has now been repainted into the standard livery.
The new-ish solo from Malta has been doing the rounds on the 58 for the past few days. Big'un has been obsessively keeping track of it, of course.

I used it creepily in Malta, the DDA laws about destination displays I don't think are very harsh

(06 Oct 2015, 8:20 am)BusLoverMum Well NX55 FFS (how apt) is trundling around the 58 route, today. The rear (roller) blind is displaying 16, with a bit of the 9 showing.One issue is most Scarlet Band drivers will not usually put anything on the side and rear roller blinds, they are normally just left blank, but the regular driver on the 16 usually puts the 16 on the side and rear blinds, saw the ex Nottingham Solo showing the 16 on its rear blind on the 16 the other week.

(06 Oct 2015, 11:45 am)BusLoverMum I wonder how that would go down in the new year, when the rules tighten up.From January many Scarlet Band buses will not be DDA compliant because the service number is displayed on the incorrect side on most of the front LED screens and then there is the lacking of appropriate side destination equipment.
You can display any number so long as it's 16.

Last time I was at their garage there were 2 minibuses in all over white.
Does anyone know if these have been repainted yet?
