Ha ha only on services which allow it sir...

Are the arriva routes out of chester quite tricky to learn or are they straightforward?

Needs the white stripe around the front and X44 livery looked better


RE: Arriva North West - Chester Depot - R557 ABA - 25/10/2012 17:58

No. Versa's don't get the white stripe around the front, and neither should the Solo's looking at the 2012 paint scheme manual.

Have to say I prefer the way Optare painted Midland's Versas!

Noted 7533 on the 10 last week, still going strong then.

No problem, It's taxed until the 1st June 2013, although we all know that means nothing really as that can be refunded if the vehicle is withdrawn.

Hopefully it will have many more months in service to follow yet.

No hesitation in saying although its the oldest, 7533 is one of the best Darts in the North West and Wales fleet. As Tom says I sincerely hope it battles on for a while yet!

7533 deserves to be preserved, lets hope somebody picks it up.

It's just a shame it got refurbished some years ago, a lot more work than some of the examples already scrapped but I think it'd be worth the effort to save at least one.
