sorry just guess work thats all it could be plus 684 sounds awful at the moment. but its only 685 and 684 left in old livery from bangor depot.

Perhaps strange timing for these Solos to be refurbished. It could slow-down the MAXing of the Pulsars for route 51.

I would presume the Darts will move as soon as the last two Pulsars (2653/5) return from refurb, so it shouldn't have any effect. All of the other Pulsars being done are complete.

With most Pulsars now done, the relaunch cannot be far away now. Indeed, at this rate route 51 could be MAXed on say March 1st, if not sooner.

hopefully it willb e launched before end of janaury, there seems to be a few changes in vosa on 25th Janaury in Bangor so i wonder if that could be the date fo the launch in Rhyl

It was pencilled in for tomorrow 5 January originally if my sources are correct. I'm sure Smithy will advise.

If it was tomorrow nout on arriva buses wales fb page or anything on the 12 buses to say anything special about the 51's turning into max, poor marketing from arriva. Though thats my opinion.

Those buses being dolled up is really no big deal, all they are is 7-8 year old mid life buses getting a refurb, but whatever they do they are just pulsars that have already been launched once before.
