Yes, confirmed this week that it has been, having seen the damage I am not surprised.

Cheers, One Question about the Darts as well, you said they are tired and was wondering if its certain ones playing up or if its the entire batch that are now life expired


RE: HTL Buses - CX06 EBK - 25/03/2021 22:38

Just the four of them in general, they are usually limited to working the 3s nowadays. They do tend to do full days but they do have increased downtime of late.


RE: HTL Buses - T42 PVM - 25/03/2021 22:38

Cheers for that

New with roller blinds but received an LED display between 2014 and 2015 according to images, could be the last vehicle new to HTL with roller blinds but there may be more still about albeit withdrawn.

Yes everything since had LEDs although secondhand Optare Solos W601-3PTO & W958PAU had rollers, there is nothing left on site with roller blinds now other than preserved Optare Solo V980XUB - which had LEDs when it was in service here.

Optare Solo MX54KXW should have also departed for scrap today, it was heavily stripped this week for all useable spares for preserved V980XUB and Alexander Dennis Dart SLF SN05HDF will be the final departure for scrap, at least for now.

Do you know if SN06 BMU actually left as well?


RE: HTL Buses - CX06 EBK - 02/04/2021 12:11

Yes it departed last week the day after DK08AYU I believe.

Was that the one with the green LED display?
