Plus I remember riding a full size ALX200 Dart on the 18

A slf dart is not a full size single decker? Its about the same size and seating capacity of an nx b6. I mean a proper full sized bus as in b7rles,  b10ble etc

No they weren't included in the purchase of Midland so were sent to Arriva

Nope, didn't pass to Arriva.

Bob, the Dart that was referred to has 40+ seats. I understand what was meant was a proper heavy duty single decker.
But no, they currently have no proper full size single deckers.
I expect they will do sometime, but I don't think it will be in the next year.

The 3 OmniCitys were sent to D&G, and I think they are now with South Lancs Travel

I can imagine some of the older sb200s being cascaded in....

I wonder if the new/newer cascades are in response to NXWM's recent interest in Cannock area tenders?

All three buses on the 334 today were Darts, so my two DD observations were perhaps just co-incidence.

[Nathan4775]

Anyone else noticed now Arrivaare accepting NXWM Bus Passes/tickets for 50p  :D

They obviously dont want to make any profits then-a bit of a desperation tactic to revive failing commercial routes eg 334 and 9. Ironically its Thandi that are destroying them on the 334-theyre usually fairly full whereas arriva are mostly empty.

There on the 110/604 etc most WM Arriva buses I think :D

[Bob]

Nothing could be classed as a failing route more than the 19 lol

[Nathan4775]

Are there only 3 buses branded for the 35 ?

noted 2143 off on the 112, so its getting closer to getting back on the 35
