Well, i've been away from the forum for a few days, due to flat-out 9 hr shifts at work (now counting 7 in a row, with another 2 to go.... but i digress...)
The first time in a few weeks something interesting has happened!
20768 has been on it's way out for a fair few months, but as for 20779, i must say i'm surprised!! i was on this not two months ago, and it seemed sweet as a nut!
That's buses for you!

Those KX51 solos have the ability to brighten up any day!! I wonder how many "KX51 Fails" LL have had since they arrived.... hmmm....

The driver abandoned it and walked to the bus station!
We thought the PO51's were bad until the KX51's came to spoil the party!

84 branded Versa on the 89 just now.
Not much else to report, just your average Sunday
Still don't know what these 4 new vehicles arriving in a few weeks could be....

the train services between Workington and Carlisle are all currently cancelled. rail replacement coaches aren't running due to an RTA at Dovenby, which will also affect Stagecoach's 58 service.
expect the B10M's on 300 to be at full seated & standing capacity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Had a rather ful 20765 on 300. It struggled to pick up speed quite a bit. it was one of the fast drivers too!!! Ride comfort has improved since summer 09 though!
20761 also on 300. 20943 on CE operated one.
Some Carlisle Citi Darts have gained new style megarider adverts. Passengers seem to like them better than the big orange rectangles!!!

14245 went past me in Carlisle earlier on this afternoon, re-panelled!!!
Solo PX54 EPN being rubbed down at Carlisle.
33161 and 33162 sat dead in the back corner of CE depot. 33161 had engine bay open, and 33162 had front end off, suggesting it had been towed back.
16870, a few Darts, and a few B10M's in workshops.
24119 and another 79 / 179 branded E300 in and around depot.
24122 and 20944 on 179.
52409 on 600.
52408 and 52627 on 685.
14209, 14260, 14265, 16337, 20907 and 20965 on school work.
16397 on 554 as usual.
had Paladin bodied 20994 on Carlisle - Workington 300 just then, and have to say that it was rather good! picked up speed rather well, ride was rather comfy. much much much better than the K reg's i'm used too!!! with a nice retrim and new flooring, it would be a great replacement at Lillyhall few odd seats in it like, but its nothing big really.

Can always tell when your on Gez lol there's a sense of calm around the bus station I see the timetable board has been fixed!!!
You know anything about the 10 plates turning up in a few weeks. I can only imagine they are the solos for the X12.
Actually seeing as Barnsley have solos 47723-27 and our solos are going to be 47728-31 it will be the solos.

20735 finally withdrawn it was supposed to be replaced by 20130
I imagine 42565 will disappear soon enough, leaving Carlisle as the last Vario haven...
I believe the entire batch of E400s for SCNW will be 60 plates.
Gez - indeed, things were running smoothly as you were around :P
