Also, I see the X66 has some rather unusual allocations! - Sometimes its a coach and sometimes its a Solo! Thanks Tony, it is a shame every other route is more or less boring!

The X66 is normally 3 of the Coaches (1207/9/14 usually, 1208 does occasionally appear) and 2 of anything Darlington has spare, more normally it's two Dart SLFs or Prestiges.
One 7 duty does currently work onto the last 6 at 1740, and that does occasionally throw up a unusual appearance - though I'm still waiting for the day a Pulsar or an OmniCity turns up on it (4661 did appear on the 7 a while ago but on the working behind the one that does the last 6). The vehicle off the 6 (normally an MPD) goes to do the evening 27s from 1820.

Ok, cheers! - So I have saw Olympians and Solos on the X66. How often does this happen?

Olympians - used to be often but obviously not now given they are no longer allocated to Darlington
Solos - occasionally
