One did the whole length of the A174 Parkway and then the A19 and A66. Do the drivers themselves decide?</p><p></p><p>

A guess/certainty is the revision will be downwards seeing a reduction in frequencies thus releasing Solos from Darlington. Is this how the Darts North of the Tyne are finally to be removed?

Do you know what is wrong with 7426 as I require that one. On Saturday went to Whitby 7424 was out along with 143? And 4705.

Having discounted the ukbuses one (too many obvious inaccuracies!), I stumbled across this one by "quack77": http://quack77.uk/fleetlists/fleet.php?ownerid=112

The page does note that the fleet list is incomplete; in particular there's an absence of Streetlites or Temsas. However, apart from these, my knowledge of the fleet suggests that it's otherwise quite accurate. Is anyone with better knowledge than mine able to verify that?
