Actually there will be at least 1 Solo in use on it and that one is 20738 (YJ10EYT) which moved across from Tividale last week

Oh that's good news then.

I've been told by a driver friend of mine 2 more Solo's have transferred to Kidderminster for the 202 both of these are Cummins engined

• 20734 (YM55SVG)
• 20840 (YJ54BUH)

I await to see if those are actually used on the 202 though...

I think it will be a waste transferring 20734 as it is one of the biggest solo tividale has. Would have thought 20828 or one of them solos would have gone along with 20840

Not necessarily as Tividale still has long Solo's  30638 & 30639 (YJ06 YPU & YPV)

20840-202 seemed strange to transfer a solo which they had none off? Why not a dart? Or unlike NX are they trained on everything?

Lmao trained on everything. That bit of working for Diamond is a surprise. As in figure everything out yourself on the bus

SN10CDF was still in Kidderminster today (22/03) I saw it on the 42 this afternoon although it has been confirmed it is only a short term loan to Kidderminster and it is likely it will return to Tividale (unless it already has done) either tomorrow or Friday
