Gillmoss were due 2 more solos this week before the accident with 47328, as the 8 solos they have do have reliability issues. Pretty sure 47327 is still off the road as well.
24134 was out on the 135 this week due to the Solo and Dart shortage at Gillmoss

47326 was in service at Preston today so I presume 47329 will be as well.

I think 47327 is back out now as all 7 available Solos were out at the same time briefly with 47709 and 47710 on the 135 tonight.

PX04 DRZ according to a Facebook group has not been to Cumbria and north Lancashire
According to Stephen Knight Media Dart 34579 has moved to Cumbria & North Lancashire. Back to its roots maybe as this was one of the Carlisle flood Darts.

47327 back out yes. 47328 still off the road with its accident damage and 47753 is off the road again, this time due to a major fuel leak which required the spill kit to be used in Bootle Bus Station on Stand 5 last night.
47328 is now repaired and back on the road. It has been fitted with the engine out of 47083

These were remarkably modern Darts for Stagecoach to dispose of. I am surprised they couldn't have repalced older vehicles elsewhere within Stagecoach.

They're no longer required so it makes more sense to sell them on now while they have a decent book value
