Just passing through

If you go by Milehouse Depot will you probably see a couple of Dennis Darts sitting there which look slightly different to the others. They currently have the first 2 of 16 which will be passing through Milehouse for refurbishment before being returned to London. At some time in the near future they will be refurbishing Darts from London - and keeping them for Plymouth. Just not these ones. Blue Triangle ©Brian George

Plymouth Citybus are now receiving a further batch of Dennis Darts, this time with the more conventional Plaxton bodywork rather than the Wrights that were brought in before. PTOTPA
Who was responsible for this idiotic scheme that never worked and nobody liked? John Prescott introduced it in 1999. It's his only contribution to Labour policy anyone can remember. Pass Notes - the M4 bus lane

  1. Should have known these weren't staying in plymouth, they're obviously too new for citybus. Go ahead are probably looking for more r reg rubbish to dump in plymouth. Pcb's newest buses are two and a half years old now and with no new buses in sight, rubbish.

  2. I reckon Plymouth will be getting the 52-reg 10.1m ones that these 10.7m examples are displacing off route 239. So not too old, hopefully.

  3. I seem to recall being told that we were expecting 51 reg buses but this may not be the case. Certainly shouldnt be any older. They will be dual door Pointers
