RE: HTL Buses
Seen one on the 102 on Tuesday as well, don't know which one though as my 61 turned into Long Lane before it reached me.

W601 PTO on the 897 and W602 PTO on the 258. Both now have company logos and correct blinds. (Although W602 PTO didn't have Stockbridge on it's blinds, I did see it correctly displaying Huyton earlier in the day.)

Justice is finally here. Rest In Peace the 96, You'll Never Walk Alone.

RE: HTL Buses
Up to now (at least on Flickr) I've not seen any photos of the newest three Solos at HTL, YJ12 PNK/L/N.

I finally managed to catch up with one (and had a ride on route 187 for the first time) earlier today and sampled YJ12 PNK.

HTL Buses 185 YJ12 PNK by buses7675!, on Flickr

They seem the same as the previous sets of Solos, other than for some reason they don't appear to have Optare badges (at least this and PNN which I saw the other day don't anyway), but still pleasant enough buses, nice driver and the service does seem to be being used with a total 6 people using the run I was on between Hope Uni and LSP at 13.42 which for a short 15 min service (end to end) isn't too bad!

RE: HTL Buses
Hi All,

A bit of news with HTL too, regarding fleetnumbers!

The new Solos have been allocated numbers as follows:

185 YJ12 PNK
82 YJ12 PNL
12 YJ12 PNN

The ex Nottingham Solos have the following numbers:

45 W601 PTO
29 W602 PTO
46 W603 PTO
9 W958 PAU

There is a currently a duplicate due to this as Y196 KNB is currently also 45 and although VOR this is now expected to be fixed and re-enter service sometime soon, at which point the fleetnumbers will be re-allocated to get around duplicates, but also tidy the numbers up.

Dawsonrental's Enviro200s KX59 CYY, KX59 CYZ & KX58 GVA are all expected to return to Dawsons this Friday.

They are due to acquire ex demonstrator Mercedes Sprinter BX12 DZG this week too and this is expected to see use on route 897.

Thanks as ever to HTL for providing this information!
