I did hear that it was off the road for a while, so maybe the gave up with it and sold it on? I'm not sure though. I guess their Enviros will satisfy the requirements for the 303 tender, as even if it's a Euro 6 tender, they are trapping their fleet.
It was taken off the road at least a year ago.  KRZ replaced it on the 303 and afternoon 2s.  VOM is out on the 303 today.

Update on the darts

Parked up in the depot today were:
Y131GBO
SK51AYD
NK51MKE
X312KRX
All are withdrawn.

Y184KNB was also parked up, but is still in service along with T580JTD, CX03EBJ, X292ABU & RX51FNU which were all out in service today.

RX51 FNU has been sold and preserved. The ticket machine from that has obviously gone into another bus and the details are still the same.
I didn't think NK51 MKE was there as I didn't see it a few weeks ago whilst present, however, V210 ERG was parked up at the back. I think that was withdrawn in March.

One (or both) of the FJN darts have been preserved back in South London, but not sure who FNU went to.  MKE was there today, however I didn't see ERG anywhere.

FNU is down South as well.

TGH's MOT expired in August, so it can't have been that one.

Did you actually see both vehicles in question in person?  What TEX have been doing is swapping machines between the old darts and the new enviros.

X312krx has been back in use

Just asking shouldn't this thread be renamed as Let's Go as that's the new name of the company? Only as I know Let's Go still register services as TEX!!😁

Let's Go is only the trading name, the license is under Travel Express.

Oh ok... Thanks @Pat...I wasn't too sure as I know on the WMN website it's been changed from TEX to Let's Go. So I wasn't sure.. 😁 It was known as Travek Express prior to the change of name.. 😁

They've always been known as 'Travel Express'.  The 'Let's Go' name has only been around since 2016, when Chumber had his new licence.  It's is only used as a trading name, as legally they are known as 'TRAVEL EXPRESS LIMITED'.

So basically WMN should show them as 'Travel Express' and 'not'  Let's Go then?
