Don't know the fleetnumber or if it matches the 55 plate dart your looking for but a 55 plate dart has started to appear on the 890.

Thanks for the quick reply, along with the info! Before, Telford had a large batch of 55-plate Darts, but now all but one of the BW- batch have gone to Leicester.  :(

Thanks for the update! I always refer to 6007 as the "blue bus". 2223 was based at Telford but now at Shrewsbury, probably having work on the gearbox, because it would change to 2nd to early, indicating its possibility of being broken. Either that, or its having a refurb.

Coiuld possibly be heading to wenesfield where 2218 is, and 6007 is 1 of the blue shroshire buses, I think 6008 belongs to telford aswell and the rest are at shrewsbury

By 6008, I think you mean 6006 - which used to be based at Telford, but now at Oswestry  >:(. I've only been on one Solo before - it was 2504, and it wasn't a pleasant journey, having 3 buggies on  board.

2383 is back at Telford following its stay at Oswestry.

Yes, it was also at Shrewsbury shortly after its stay at Oswestry. Very odd design, the Caetano Compass - not really my favourite.  :-\

So is 6007 the only shropshire bus based at Telford now then? 2503 was at Telford before but I think was swapped with 2504 and now shrewsbury have got 2561 from wednesfield

The Solos that Telford have are 2503, 2504, and 6007. So, 2503 is still at Telford.
