Strafford’s K638 GVX has caused a bit of work down at Nant Mill this afternoon, after leaving the road and making itself a public feature: https://twitter.com/LlinosEG/status/353162707010199554

I heard earlier today that D Jones & Son have sold GN07 FDF and bought a B33F, 3 year old vehicle in a gold livery, seatbelts were mentioned as being a possible reason.

Garsty Can you find out what trips of Chester the Versa will do as I am not sure what the PVR is

Its due for Paint so itll go soon, Gary never puts stuff onto the road without his Livery, and E208WBG the PVR for the C56 is 1 or 2 as it being every Hour either way the Versa should appear very often..

Also who has GN07FDF Been sold to?

RX57 GOE is not suitable for road use yet because of the routes, it usually does the Dinas Bran School run, but if ya went to the depot it would be there, GOE is due for a route testing soon to see if it can be used because he E-mailed me asking if it would i personally thing it would suit 35 and 39's

Townlynx

A quick update on the ex Irish vehicles here

All B6's (3 ex bus Eireann and 4 ex Dublin Bus) and both B10's (ex Bus Eireann) are now in the new Lime Green livery.

W173XMA (ex Eireann) Y969WDM and Y978WDM (ex Dublin) are in service.

W176XMA and W181XMA are not serviceable (mechanical issues)

01D10045 and 01D10046 are being prepared for service together with the B10's 00C27964 and 00C31053.

Photos can be found on my FLICKR site following the links of 01D10046, 01D10045 and 00C27964

The latter two show the latest Townlynx decals beng employed with an interesting union jack and a 'lynx'

Following the departure of the two Solos the 'Crusaders' can now be found travelling the now shorter 6 route travelling through the housing estates of Mold to Pantymwyn.
