Talk about a confused identity lol.wonder if all three will stay

[Bob]

They had the bright idea of allocating both 57 plate Solos ( two of the most unreliable heaps theyve got) to the 841 today, it looks like both broke down and left 2hr gaps in service as its hourly...jeeez

You mean Diamond East Midlands don't you?  A lot of dead mileage on the Wellington 100 which they began running last year so presumably the dead mileage doesn't bother them.  It's being launched in conjunction with David Wilson Homes so the housing developer must be picking up the tab.

Crikey they can't maintain the network they have got!

[Bob]

They also had the great idea to send two of the 62 plate Streetlites ( that they seem to be able to barely keep on the road) to run the 100 in Telford, one of which duly broke down, along with the ( even less reliable) two door Streetlite they sent out on the 432 

[Bob]

Sone of the Volvo's broke down too resulting in journeys missing on 74/828, which left a 1hr gap in service.
