One of the new solos was on the 144 this afternoon, I've not seen this happen before.

Had a full ride on the extended 139 earlier, on the service I was on, the Prescot - st helens section was far from busy, and no one travelled any great distance, as an alternative to the 10A.

Wont go into detail other than to say the driver was a bad'n on a number of counts

I've checked loads of plates and this seems to be true, the second letter in any 'new' registration is never the same as the final one. Examples of this are there being no YJ12 GXJ at Cumfy, no YJ12 GZJ at HTL, no KX59 CWX at HTL/Dawsons, no Arriva CX/MX registrations end in X either!


On a different note, a few odd workings today at Cumfybus were of Solo M710SE MX08 DHL on the 139 along with Cummins engine Solo M950 MX04 VLU.

I just challenged this myself and thought, 'I'm sure I've seen MX58 DWX'. Sure enough I was incorrect.

First Manchester B9TL's:

37387 - MX58 DWW
37388 - MX58 DWY.

I forgot to post that GXO was unusually on the 57C/58C/144/145 yesterday, which brings the total number of hybrid Solos to 13.
