(31 Mar 2017, 8:50 pm)Jamie M It wasn't this morning or for the 8 months prior haha, you must just be lucky 😛

3885 - 3887 and 3889 all went to Saltmeadows Road at the start of this year to have new rear route number displays fitted and side LED displays fitted (if they didn't already have them fitted).

Again, all were working whenever this was done.

Solo was in Arriva depot for his lunch break on the 434 as there is no where for it to park in the temp bus station without blocking other buses.

Do Percy Main need more Solar's since the increase in PVR, as it was mainly the Solo routes which had an increase.
