Enviro200 YX66WDS (ADL200E) has been sold to Prentice of Haddington, East Lothian. A Volvo Plaxton Coach new in November 2006 has come the opposite way and is registered WEZ60, appreciated if anyone has any more info on it’s former id?
Solo’s V406JTO (GOG3T) And V407JTO (T3WES) have been sold to Elite, Stockport.
Cannot work out why Elite would want Solos. Surly too small for school work??

Good to see, a coach was always overboard! They do also work schools that likewise don't require a coach.

One of them is regularly used on the h23. It wouldn’t surprise me if elite have another school route that merits a solo as Hulme Hall had a few routes using pointer b6s at the end.

I expect they will be turned out on schools.
How often does the free shuttle run??

I think WEZ60 was SN56DPC with the more modern headlight arrangement applied by Prentice.
Goodwins also have another Van Hool Astromega, this time all white GO60GDY - a former Berry of Taunton WA61GRX arriving in January.
on ebay are
WSV550 the ex Ashalls Caetano Levante
WSV553 the ex Isle of Man East Lancs Dart

According to the Knutsford Guardian Go Goodwins have been awarded a contract to run a park & ride shuttle for the Knutsford Christmas Markets this December - and we've only just had Easter!

The IOM dart that was WSV 553, has been reregistered to WEZ 3806.
