    Looks like she'll be gracing the streets of West Cumbria soon then! I almost nearly shouted yaaaaaaaay! ....but then had a moment of reflection and remembered what bus it is. Rather hope its like a neeeew bus now, and actually worth keeping on the road this time! (if it can!) :lol: If all is...

    I respect budget cuts, but I think it was just a waste of time coming up with the new green livery twist in the first place AND ordering them without advert boards when then they are not committed in providing pristine vinyl's to go along with it. Its the bloody Lakes for goodness sakes(!)...

    Fleet numeros and stagecoach cumbria logo on side? :lol: Somethings really annoying me about the branding.... it doesn't look very well in proportion. OK, they had them down to order without advert boards so you would have thought space could have been used a little better. Also think the...

    Got itself together and replaced 16870 on 51 by mid-morning. 47006 seemingly appeared for 22108's replacement on 50. Two Solo's ending the day on Moorclose, and not 34218 in sight! :lol: Poor 34218, needs a Solo replacement from somewhere sharpish!

    Both a long dart and 34218 taken off Moorclose this morning around half 9 simultaneously and replaced by 16870 and 22108. Both have been on for at least 3 runs of the Circular now. How is 34218 coping away from 50?.....!

    Certainly looks quite good... for the benefit of the forum community heres a piccy attached, many have probally seen the pictures! Also sounds intresting....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJgVxZBqxN0 If it takes off and orders are placed I would imagine a special livery for it, don't know if it...

    22108 finally out and about today. Did Northside this morning, then this afternoon ended up on short 302.

    It would seem that 24122 was on the full 685 to Newcastle today... http://www.flickr.com/photos/emdjt42/6132644933/in/photostream/ Not my picture, credit to author.

    Replaced by 47006 while waiting to picture 22104 in the sun... :(

    It would be very nice to see that in service, looking good! It would seem that 22104 is out on Moorclose 50 this morning. Not the ideal allocation on the tight estates and already running late, I can't see it lasting all day...........

    34218 out on evening 30 tonight, havn't seen or heard of this for a long while in comparison to the normal Solos around at this time of night.

    Suppose 47006 could have been a better suited allocation, instead of on Lowca 1... ouch! :lol: (47616 in depot, 47006 was Moorclose earlier in morning)

    Torrential rain in lovely West Cumbria this morning, so much so it was only right for a Manchester MAN to appear today......22104 was sat on the annex not too long ago when I drove past, has nothing on the blinds, but an inspector looked to have a handfull of destination boards.

    It would be great if they did either of these, but I think choosing what would be chosen would be down to what needs painted! Solo wise, Workington favourite 47059 would be a good one, but I think rather patchy 34616 is also a good one, as its in need of a full repaint. An unlikely return of...

    It has been very successful! Every bus that I've seen running throughout the day, especially around noon and into the early afternoon have a substantial amount of people using it, more than I think anyone would have thought, and if not provided, I think the Profiles (when they want to be on!)...
