Seems to have very good loadings- potential bigger bus needed

Small Solo on loan as the larger one away to Dawsons for mot, back next week.

We have some Mobitec icu400 units with large card inputs instead of usb. Anyone know what card I need and where we can get one from

3.3v Smart Media cards, formatted to FAT. You need to buy a reader for them too.

You could always look on eBay for USB units and just swap them, sell on the older units. There is one seller currently advertising five for sale.

What is the regular  bus on 147 service

During the first few weeks of March it was Solo YJ62FYZ , but as advised by Kev's in an earlier message , this went for MOT etc and another Solo YJ15ARF was loaned to replace it. Not seen the 147 yet this month to give a more recent update. HTH, Andrew.  8)

Minicoach MX07ZRG was on the 355 in Worcester on 21st March.

YJ62 now back from MOT and mini Solo returned to Dawsons. Likely that YJ62 will operate 355 and one of 4 Primo's will operate 147, presently this is KX08HMC. Coach fleet all ready for the return of the little angels next week.

Another Primo , KX07KNW , has been a regular on the 147 recently. On close inspection you can see where the "Mid Wales" fleet-names  once were.  :)

Any news on the  4 06 reg promo's ex eyms  entering service as they have 2 ex igo promos in service

We are taking our time with these vehicles. Hopefully in the summer two will be re-built and the other two used as spares for the remainder of the fleet. All 4 have good working engines, gear boxes and angle drives as you would expect coming from EYMS. We also purchased all EYMS Primo spares from their parts department and therefore anyone looking for parts we may be able to help.
