They might keep 2966 temp replacement 2660 for a bit longer then? Either that or they could get something from another depot

Strange that two Solos have gone out on loan then if they're short on Solos, unless they're happy to have them out and temp Pulsars in there place.

There are 2 Solo SRs due at Bangor for Engine replacement, I assume 718 is one of them

Is 3217 likely to return to St Helens anytime soon?

Usual Bustimes edit precautions but it seems 3047 seems to have transferred here after it's fatal RTA whilst in service at Runcorn, with 3038 going the other way.

Makes sense as it will be replaced by MMCs later this year

3047 was in service in St Helens on Saturday on Borough Rd so I can confirm it is there.
Also seen was 2660 on a 33 (although Bustimes is showing it’s not been in service since February!!)

2660 tracks as the spare machine at the bottom of the list

3047 is still tracking as 3038 as its not been swapped over on the depot allocation system
