RE: Bus-Related Outings & Reviews
Today, I Went to D&G's Depot in Crewe, Then a walk down Road 4 in Winsford, To see the new Optare Solo SR's

Rather Pleasingly, The driver swaped 3360 for this! Despite its turbo leak, It was rather good! A Bit rattley though, But the driver was fast!

After missing 3329, On the previous journey of the 31, I Was happy to see this come! It was fast, But slow, If you know what i mean!, Well even though the ride is 31 Mins, And it was quite a fast driver, It felt as if it was going on for ever! It was very Rattely, But had a great sounding engine behind it!

I Carn't really judge this! I Was only on it for about 2 Mins! It was not very rattley, But that's it!
