No.

D16WMS (formally Y555ELF) doesn't tend to appear in service much, about the most it does is the 115 on weekdays usually if M6WMS (formally X317CBT) or occasional appearances on Crook Town Service 84.

It recently made an odd appearance on the 7 between Shildon and Spennymoor.

The Enviro 200 seemed to become the regular on the 84 although most times I've seen the 84 recently it's either been GO59WMS or D16WMS.

In the winter once a few years ago they had a Decker on the 84 service and the original M6 WMS was used quite a bit too that was the 1995 Mercedes.

D16WMS just gone chugging past on 17.30 Cowshill to Crook - it's quite rare up the top of Weardale, it's usually GO03WMS or Y6WMS if it's a Solo up the Dale instead of the Silver Sprinter.

How many times does the service run to Rookhope these days and is the Stanhope town service still going i may be wrong but did it not go around Ashcroft.

No Stanhope town service since Co. Durham cuts in April 2011. Yes it did go around Ashcroft and up Crawleyside. The 102 still goes to Rookhope: from Stanhope 0750 Sch, 1115, 1300 and 1545 Sch, returning from Rookhope fifteen minutes later. On Saturdays there's also a 1700 from Stanhope so the people from Rookhope can have an afternoon in Bishop Auckland!

One of the second hand coaches added to the fleet is Van Hool TX15 YJ14CFM - formerly in the Fishwicks fleet. It wears Insight Vacations livery for the summer 2016 season.

Neoplan Tourliner MA12ADV has had its Insight Vacations livery removed suggesting it could be leaving, while VDL Bova SN12DNJ has joined the Weardale tour fleet now painted in the latest livery (ex Insight Vacations).
