That's not a solo, it's a Versa as clearly shown on the side of the vehicle.

I take it the route is supported by Durham Council?
I know a lot of people complained that they were going to have to walk further to get the bus now the 18/X21 no longer go around Woodhouse Estate.
Is it basically a copy and paste job of the old 18 route?

Yes this was an emergency tender from Durham County Council.

Weardale have also won the 88 from Scarlet Band which runs off the new service 9.

That is a much better route than the 18 was, the fact that it doesn't go down Proudfoot Drive means it won't get as many of the 'characters'!

Few updates from the Weardale camp as I've been preparing their fleetlist - I'll try to get the online ones updated as soon as I can!
Fairly new additions here are (as above) ex Lothian Scania SN57DBX - now D6WMS - and a second is SK06AHG.
Also added is Solo YJ14BBF, B9R Elite YN10FKR from Selwyns, and brand new B8R Leopard 6YUP for the new X6 to Metrocentre - once we get back to normal timetables

Exactly the same as Weardale's X21 - all the X6 was going to be (as it was due to start in the coming days) is the X21 renumbered and retimed.
