Just seen an 11 plate E200 on Travellers city services with Kendalking at the wheel!

Also 16351 is out and about, think it did a 42.

Aye - I can remember being on it a while back but haven't seen it since. Does this example still have its rear advertising?

Seems to be a shortage of Solo's yet again at Lillyhall. 34218 and 34616 both on Moorclose Circulars, while 20918 on short 302's.
20473 on 31, showing "031" on the rear, didn't notice what was on the side. Also got 2 Darts on, with 22608 running staff shuttles.
52628 departed on 15:45 X5 showing "Derwent School X5".

No doubt the usual panic story when schools go back and the fitters realise (or rather don't!) that the majority of the fleet will be out 2/3 hours sooner than over summer!

Just seen 16665 being towed away from Abingdon Street Blackpool by Heysham Tow Trucks. I presume it had broke down on a Lancaster to Blackpool 42 Service.

Nope, a deer deciding to try and jump through he windscreen on one of the Tridents.
14252 out all day today on 555 had it on the 1000 southbound off Kendal.

Tacho Tridents needed for the show shuttles

Kendals 14245 in Lancaster early this morning, possibly on a Dallam School run.

14252 worked the 11.20 & 17.25 off Lancaster.

16662 Brokedown on Pointer roundabout at about 1.30, bring Lancaster to a standstill, evenually being towed away just after 4pm. It was service 42 at the time.

Not a good day for the 42's or Olympians.:lol:

I believe all Leyland Olympians (which is basically Kendal's allocation and only 14196 from Lancaster) are to be gone in 2012 after the Olympics.

Slightly ironic I suppose....

We don't have any Olympics...well, except for London 2012!

Indirectly (and how indirect is stll unknown), new vehicles will be replacing the Olympians via a series of cascades.
