Optare Solo SR MX12 KVW (704) on the 84 this evening.

Surely you mean 709, 704 is a Macclesfield Solo ?
whatever its not normal for a solo to be on this route anyway.

They sometimes swap around the SRs between Macclesfield and Winsford, but Its definatley unusual to see one on the 84!
RE: Arriva North West - Winsford Depot - 33109 - 18/02/2014 10:42
Very unusual, sometimes winsford borrow a macc solo to cover if one of theirs is on maintenance/ repair. Assume one of maccs is still of the road as 877 is still hanging around.

It was actually 709. It was left for the 84 after completing its duties on the number 8. I believe the incoming bus from Chester was delayed.

Lets hope when 4027/4216 get on the road they'll use em more on the 84s as especially around kicking out time or the kids the 84 is heaving. A cadet just feels way too small for the passenger numbers at times.

I would agree totally. That is why deckers are being sort after to replace the cadets. There is talk of the Volvo B7's coming over from Southport later in the year.

Thanks for clarifying, I knew it was one or the other, couldn't remember which though.

I've just had 4143 on the 18:25 journey from Gorse Stacks-Crewe....25 minutes late by the time we left Tarvin because of broken temporary traffic lights...I used to think 4143 was slow, We got into Crewe 5 mins late!
Also were 4027 or 4216 out in service today?

4143 actually replaced 4027 0n the 1400 Crewe to Chester. 4027 was required back at depot for CCTV maintenance. Can't see 4216 running for a while yet too many issues to sort out.
