As far as I know its still fully active but spare like 2608 and used when needed could possibly simply be VOR but im off this week so cant check

Clears that up I didn’t want to assume it was withdrawn this and 2608 can’t have long left now surely now the Geminis refurbs have nearly finished.
What would be a suitable allocation for the 166/188? Pulsars and commanders?

Cant see the Commander or Centro doing 166/188 as they be old for the contract

Tbh anything could do 166/188/204 from Deckers to Solos so I susoect it be see what happens

I wouldnt be suprised if Solos run 204 and Garstons on Sundays and Pulsars in the week

But we will have to wait and see what happens as only 1 Solo had Arrived at Speke the other week and when I finished Monday no more had arrived

I'm possibly sure there going be some Solos working on some, I do believe that the St Helen's Solos are going from there sooner.

Would this mean some 58/12 plate Solos are due to this depot? That should be the ones that are going.
Solo SRs 718 719 are now there, 717 and 720 are due to arrive by tomorrow
717 I think it was was on route training today noted it by Womans hospital around 1400
