Quote from: solonightrider on August 31, 2023, 09:54:39 PMjeez one of the more newer buses in such a state but they hemorage money on keeping 15/16 year old solos running. Not even had 144 that long just over 12 months or so  :cry:
These things happen. A few years ago I bought a brand new car that had done just 18 miles. It broke down the very next day with only 26 miles on the clock.
Re 144. I've heard it's still in the yard for spares

Think most people are thinking that way. Even drivers are thinking it and the 4th being used for the rumored 19 they're taking over in Walsall

But with 4 new buses arriving it might cascade newer buses

mmm nowt there to cascade lol They need a solo evicting session for sure  :rolleyes: 25 seats on the core interurban network especially at peak times isnt very inviting at all [thats if they turn up or manage to complete the journey with out breaking ] 

I would be surprised at Evoras as they dont seem to like ful size stuff unless can sneek some optare badges on them haha  :grin:

My assumption is to get put out to tender so they can have it to get paid to run them. They did the exact same thing with the 3
