Just seemed strange it was the same vehicle each day and a 12 branded one at that

Ivor, it will be to keep it local due to a reliability issues or some kind of niggle like that. Oswestry garage do the same with specific vehicles over time, a good example of late is one of the Pulsars been restricted on the 53 opposed to its normal allocation on the Wrexham's.

How long have the 3 Darts (920,921,922) got left they are now the only ones remaining in service and I presume Rhyl will be getting Cadets to replace them

They've still got quite a while left yet, the majority have been replaced by Cadets on the 35/36 routes but the 84/84A/85 are too tight for Cadets, so they'll presumably be replaced by Solos or small Enviro200s but the MPDs aren't going anytime soon as far as I'm aware.
