Looks as if the solos are on their way out - only saw one out on the 36 yesterday, and could only see the one parked up last night

Yeah, there's been at least one E200 out on 36 most of this week.

No, its now a private contract - forgot about that one! only a few journeys in one direction of a morning and a few the opposite in the afternoon

I knew it wasn't a public service any more, only available to workers. But one of the E200s being used on the 36 last week was a Blythe Valley branded one.

On a side note, it was quite amusing to see that Diamond have been using Solos on the 36 since taking it over on Monday - same buses, just different colours! :)

Yeah, they haven't fully removed the branding yet!

That's what I thought, until I saw a primo on there today! Although to the average bus user they are a similar colour when compared to the enviros ;)
