Just seemed strange it was the same vehicle each day and a 12 branded one at that

Ivor, it will be to keep it local due to a reliability issues or some kind of niggle like that. Oswestry garage do the same with specific vehicles over time, a good example of late is one of the Pulsars been restricted on the 53 opposed to its normal allocation on the Wrexham's.

How long have the 3 Darts (920,921,922) got left they are now the only ones remaining in service and I presume Rhyl will be getting Cadets to replace them

They've still got quite a while left yet, the majority have been replaced by Cadets on the 35/36 routes but the 84/84A/85 are too tight for Cadets, so they'll presumably be replaced by Solos or small Enviro200s but the MPDs aren't going anytime soon as far as I'm aware.

2519 is back on the road, 2523 is away being refurbed and 2502 is having a new axle fitted, 2514/19/21 should all be out as far as I know
