The most recent ten (37107-116) are registered YY14 WEV/WEW/WEX/WFA/WFB/WFC/WFD/WFE/WFF/WFG and all have advert frames on the rear and nearside - presumably they will not be route branded as the one on the rear will not leave room for it. Because of the centre emergency exit, frames cannot be fitted to the offside. Most of the first 20 (37086-105) are now route-branded and 37106 is the new Carlisle Youth Zone bus. Only ten more to come now, as well as the two Enviro300s 27141/2 for the 685 Newcastle.

The 05-reg Darts are now much reduced in number - 34705/6/7/11-14 are still around as well as 34715-19 which should be staying. Most of the others seem to have gone. 34704 went to Lillyhall in exchange for 35249 some time ago and I assume it is still there as 35249 is still in service at Carlisle. I don't know if it will return to Lillyhall to release 34704. W-reg 34221 is still in service and 34219 is on loan to Lillyhall while 22269 is also still at Carlisle. All the ex-Manchester MAN A300s also remain in service - looks like they will be the last to go although 22149 should stay as it is nominally for the 520 schools and 94/97 services.

Is 47921 now becoming the regular bus on the Brampton 685? Used to be an old Solo.
