36952 - 96
Sorry, have to disagree with this one.  My impression is that 36952 is the regular choice on the 96 when either of 36209/10 is unavailable.
This is 36952 in the Drapery two days ago:

18101 is on the FULL LENGTH X4!!!  (Milton Keynes - Peterborough) :o
SUPER RARE:  17729 on X4 to Corby
But what is the fundamental reason for so many substitutions on the X4? Are there serious engineering problems with the 13 Kettering Golds.  Yesterday, having seen 18128 at Isham on what I assume was the 15 minute late 11:15 ex Peterborough, I went past Kettering garage and there were at least two Golds on there.
Are the Scanias knackered? Are there problems elsewhere in the empire with Scania Golds?  Is there any significance in Oxford's latest Golds not being Scanias?

The 96 is allocated Enviro 200's and this is an Enviro 200. Therevis only 2 branded buses though the PVR is 3.

What's 34864?  I've got it as a Dart at Exeter.
The two 96s I saw this afternoon were 36210 & 36952.
I'd have thought 22841 (and the other MAN 300s) was the most likely substitute if any of the E200s have a sicknote.

Nothing unusual about a Dart on the 50 Kettering - Bedford, in fact they seem to be coming increasingly common.  But I didn't realise 34628 was at Kettering.  I'd still got it at Leamington for disposal.  Here it climbs London Road into Kettering.

Didn't know you got Darts on 50.  Why Darts?
15608 was on X4 a few days ago.
