When did solos get branded as Voyager? I missed that one… what route/routes are they allocated too? I seen one at Dalton Park the other day, can’t recall what service, I’m guessing either 265 or 202.

723 is the only Solo branded as Voyager - because it has seatbelts and a tachograph.

It's at Washington at the moment for use on the staff shuttle, but has also been used for route learning the extension of the X1 to Peterlee/Dalton Park (which I suspect is what you saw).

I see, right. Ah route learning for the X1 makes sense, never thought of that!

Not 'rare' as such, but somewhat surprised that 6099 has spent all evening out on the X1, whilst the Xlines spec Streetdecks are sat tucked in for the night.

Not exactly the perfect thread for this, but are the Coaster Streetlites away? Seems to be All Omnicities/B7/B9s on there today so wondering if they are having something done to them (hopefully to stop the horrific rattling)
