GX53 MWJ, Dennis dart, saw parked up this evening at Coventry rail station, assuming was going to do rail replacement or was on rail replacement standby for the leamington spa to Nuneaton line via Coventry.

Ex Thandi Dart that and the NK56 at Select must be the only two Thandi Darts that probably weren't scrapped.

Would anyone want them after they were ragged around with Thandi on the 37 and 334. Interestingly Thandi got rid of these quicker than the GX53's they had

Thandi never ragged them around, the 37 and 334 are hardly routes you can 'rag' something about. In fact those '56' plate Dart's were probably the most reliable they had compared to their ex London ones.

I did hear something about the engine out of NK56 EPU being used for GX53 MWJ, although I'm not 100% sure about that. To be fair I've not really seen any of the ex Thandi Darts out on rail recently since they've acquired some ex London Enviro 200's.

The Enviro 200's they've acquired are...

A few of the drivers liked to mount the curbs and get up to some speed in Bentley but that might be the Engine maybe providing more torque and Speed than the other buses. They were reliable compared to the E200's I didn't ride them to often but when I did the Drivers did mount the curb or at least one did. I meant Ragged as in thrashed and in Bentley they did get thrashing over the Bridges and if no one wanted St Lawrence Way they got trashed down there a bit to.

A few drivers mounted the curbs because some of the roads around the 334/34 are tight turns, if you have 2 buses meeting on one of them bad tight turns either one or the other bus will have to use the curb, national express still use the curbs they don't intentionally do it but just can't be helped, was the same with thandi back in the days that ran,

They did it on the 37 I know the 34 doubly bad at School times

Why do NX get rid of coaches when they aren't even that old?

Why do NX get rid of coaches when they aren't even that old?

To keep a modern reliable fleet on the network.

Once a coach has hit 1,000,000 miles they tend to need a bit more maintenance, have worn seats, and more likely to break down
