20850- 28A.
First Dart to ever get on that route in the time it has been operated out of Diamond, Redditch.
The last time a Dart would have been on that route as far as I am aware would have been back when Diamond operated the route out of Long Arce some years back when it was still the 98.
Seen at Heartlands at 09:50 (09:45 journey from Ward End to Small Heath).
Local Routes
94/95, 11A/11C, 28.

I'm by no means disputing you, however; How do you know that?  Have you seen every single bus working since they've been operating it?

Obviously I won't have seen them all and may have misssed one, but i've never seen a Dart before. Though i've seen lots of buses on there in the past and i've never seen anything but a Streetlite and Solos.
The Dart isn't compliant with the TFWM Tenders either, the TFWM tenders did state Euro 5 + vehicles should be used?

I don't the Dart is compliant with the TFWM Tenders as its, the TFWM tenders did state Euro 5 + vehicles should be used?

Those Solos used on the 28A aren't Euro 5

That would be really unusual, especially as the Tamworth 16 doesn't work Sunday's!

A Volvo on the 16 any day is the norm. Don't bother posting Tracker sightings.

I did see a Wessex liveried B7RLE (with Diamond fleetnames) on the Solihull Signature routes  earlier, looked strange seeing it in Solihull, though I didn't check which one it was.
(08:40 - Solihull Town Centre - came into Solihull out of service).
30812.
