3727 is here once 4709 goes there should be one on the 3 one on the 3a and 3 on the 4's which leaves two to go where needed

3727 is on the 4 today.

Yeah I had it earlier, I've now got 4709 on 3's

What's wrong with them? They're fine to me!

Yea it's good they've got them darts and knackered pulsars so they can upgrade routes with buses older than what they've replaced 😂

The Pulsars are in a very good condition actually.

Well they were knackered when they left Cannock.....Someone commented on here previously that with the refreshed interiors they looked a hell of a lot better than they sounded. Can't Polish a turd to be fair

Oswestry depot took the time to improve 3727-31 and they really benefited from it, in particular 3728 which ended up been a very nice example both in appearance and mechanic condition. Shame they were moved on for those awful Scanias.

Bob · July 05, 2017, 08:42:39 PM

What did they do to improve them? They were pretty bad when they left cannock

4709 is about to go onto the 3 for this afternoon. Apparently this will be it's last day at Tamworth I'm told.

Why do they retire 4709 when there are older Darts still soldiering on?

4709 isn't a Dart, it's a DAF.

BN never said it was a Dart, just asking what Darts are older than 4709.

I don't think any Darts left with Arriva Midlands are older than 51 reg, so newer than 4709
