Cheers @Will . Will make your MPD's easier to get.

20610 is on 267 quite frequently, I did see a MAN/Plaxton Centro on the last 267 Friday which I've not seen before 30802

I'll bear that in mind @Winston cheers. 20610 is one I need when I get round to it. Nor have I done the routes before. I just thought they were Tividales.

20610 is quite often on the last 267 at approx 3.40pm heading back to the depot via Wall Heath

Every Thurs & Fri I've always seen 20610 when I'm picking my lad up from school. I see the last 267 finishing & returning to depot. I have seen 20104 once during Jan on there & 30802 last week.

Caught the first 267 this morning from Kingswinford and it was driven by a very (villa fan) polite driver, i had to tell him the engine flap had come up which I noticed at Ashwood Park

It was a very nice clean diamond bus (an nx fan complementing a diamond bus!) 54 part dart
That would be 20500 then

Hmm that must of been towed up there within the last couple of days as it was only photographed by someone at Kidderminster in mid-December (https://flic.kr/p/QThEhm) I'm guessing that will have an engine conversion I'm also guessing it will be a Cummins engine because I do know from a driver friend who was working at Tividale not so long back those ex-Stagecoach 04-reg (ex-Hybrid) Solos had brand spanking new Cummins engines fitted because my mate saw a Cummins van working on one of them at Tividale when he was working there

The 04 plate Stagecoach Solos were converted to run on Bio Methane, then coverted back to diesel by Stagecoach Lincolnshire when the trial finished that may/may not have involved new engines? ie long before they were acquired by Rotala.

The Solo EV may be returning to service at Preston in its current format. I guess it depends what shape it's in after long term storage
