Are Darts proving better suited to the 125 than the Versas?

According to my source Geoff Cross has said that he doesn't want the Versa's being used in Kidderminster anymore as they are getting very battered on the 125

Well all sorts Mark like for example I know they have been used on the following routes previously;

* 75 (Sutton Coldfield - Coleshill - Birmingham International)
* 66 (Burntwood - Lichfield)

They are usually used on the 16 (Tamworth-Kingsbury), 88/89 (Erdington-Streetly/Kingstanding), 78 (Sutton Coldfield-Streetly) and I'd suspect the 41 (Handsworth-Q3 Academy) since single deckers operate the 41. Although Versa's drift off onto other routes like the 66 (Lichfield-Burntwood), 75 (Sutton Coldfield-Birmingham International) and the X16 (Belgrave-Birmingham).

I thought X16 & 66 &  75 all had branded buses on there

Usually SK15 GYA is allocated onto the X16 board.
