@Steveminor - That is a shame. I assume then that your low floor Darts were probably much more reliable. I often find that some older buses can be much more reliable than some more modern buses.

Yes we're finding that at sunny travel now the elderly darts that have now gone for scrap were much more reliable than the newer buses.

@Steveminor - Yes i have definetly found that with a lot of buses that i have driven with different operators that i have worked for. For example some older mk1 and mk2 Dart SLF buses can be a lot more reliable than newer buses such as Enviro 200 and Plaxton Primo and MAN 14.220 MCV Evolution buses.

No bus at ampm was assigned a set route. I kept allocating them to the 900 during their short stay but could have gone on any route. One was even allocated on the 40 from time to time.

Ironically one was on the 40 the same day as the last day as the metrobus at AG

Oh, so you were responsible Steve, for taking those brilliant Olympians off the 900 and replacing them with those dreadful single deckers that seemed to have more luggage rack than seats!! I used to love my runs out to the Airport and back on those great buses.

Well the dockers were doing a lot of private hire work so it was either them or the darts at the time & I didn't feel the darts were quite upto the job
