(23 Feb 2014, 2:12 pm)Kuyoyo wrote At present, YM52TOU is the regular Solo appearing on Leven Valley work - T14CRT has mainly been used on Compass Royston work. The other 3 Solos with the merger company (W87NDW, MW52PYX and GX55LNF) have only been used on Compass Royston work. I would say, MW52PYX would be the most likely to move to Dales & District as it moved to Compass Royston from that operation. There's also Esk Valley to add into the equation as they are also looking like losing the majority of their service work (at present, they'll be left with one bus worth of work in Scarborough on the 115, so will free up 2/3s of their fleet)

Additional information that can be added if the route information from the 1st April (the date of the merger taking full affect on routes):

They also will still run the 505/506 (Elton Park Circular) and 577 (Stockton - Preston-on-Tees - Eaglescliffe Kingsmead - Yarm - Yarm Station - Yarm Willey Flatts - Yarm) commercially however service numbers are not yet know.

BIB: since posting this on Sunday, it was confirmed yesterday that Esk Valley have now lost all their local service work (the 115 has been regained by EYMS' Scarborough & District operation) which frees up their 2 MPDs and a Solo for transfer - I would be as bold to suggest those 2 MPDs (VU02TPX and SN06BRV) will likely end up with Leven Valley and the Solo joins the main Dales & District fleet.
