Off topic a little but have the Excels and Scania's gone ?

The Scania OmniCitys have long gone. Midland transferred them to D&G before the Arriva takeover, along with the 2 9 branded VDL MCV Evolutions. I think the OmniCitys have since transferred to South Lancs Travel

There has only been one Excel with Midland/Arriva for a while, 'S2 CLA', 3151. According to Tonys fleetlist, it is still in service at Wednesfield

Still working the WN 10?

Oh, what other singles operate the 19 then, as I thought this was unusual,

Solos, darts and Enviro200s have all worked on the 19s.

was that before it was extended to WN

Just posted my last message without reading the other posts.

Nathan just to clear things up:

Route 19 had anything in the garage before extended to Wolverhampton

The 19 mainly has the ALX400 DAF DB250's with certain journeys (Usually peak time) i see Solos.
MPD's,Full size darts and the East Lancs tridents cover usually

John, It was the trident working the 19 at first along with the Omnicitys then 4778 came to Wednesfield with that temporary midland logo?

Uhh... Let's move on from the above debate - in Telford's Unusual Workings today, I have seen:

3489 / N429XRC on 33/55
2342 / R342TJW on 44 (after 3745 broke down in Oakengates)
2374 / FJ55BWD on 44
This is a personal appeal... For Pete's Sake just save the #!@?$&% Scania's - don't let them follow the Dennis Falcons!
