Nothing wrong with the photo Jimmi. It's about time it lost the advert, it was starting to look rather tired.

Yeah it's not the best hence why it isn't on my Flickr, couldn't get anywhere else to get a better photo.

Not sure what the deal is with this bus now especially as well as loosing the advert it has also lost the Scarlet Band names too so I am wondering if it may be leaving the fleet soon or getting a repaint or running in service like this. It is weird as this hasn't been on the 16/16A the last two days with an ex Rossendale Solo operating the service today.

The advert looked tired and worn weeks after being applied and the Solo itself doesn't sound that good either.

Should hear it go over the cobbles heading onto Feethams, shakes and rattles galore, sounds like it is going to drop to pieces

Should also hear it go down the A68 past Burtree Gate on the 16A it's so loud!

The advert on the bus shelter might not be appropriate on your Flickr either. Wink

Just seen a newer solo painted in bright pink knocking around Darlington a couple of minutes ago. It certainly wasn't YT51EAW..

I was hoping to show you a photo of the bus at this point but it turned up over 10 minutes late and the driver missed out the whole of the route through Newton Aycliffe so because of this I have no photo and all I can say is that it is a pink Solo with no advert

Thanks again for the driver for failing to do the route for Newton Aycliffe and wasting half an hour of my life in the freezing cold

Yep. The 16/16A always has the same driver and always misses Faverdale High Grange out, have also seen him miss out West Park and Heighington on occasions and parts of Newton Aycliffe, tonight it came down School Aycliffe Lane over 10 minutes late and instead of turning left to head towards the train station he turned right effectively missing pretty much the whole of Newton Aycliffe out. Was probably sat at the stop at Faverdale where the Argos place is for too long for racking up this delay.

I was really not amused this happened as I was out for over half an hour in the freezing cold near the Oak Leaf Sports Complex, I would have waited closer to home but he often changes the screen to not in service before he gets round my way.

I know no-one ever gets on the 16A after the council offices just outside School Aycliffe but stops should not be getting missed out, he also drove past me one morning when I wanted to get on it too.

I will now have to go all the way to Darlington to get a photo thanks to this happening
