Surprised to see one of the Merits out today on 121/122 - although I've seen them on a few occasions in the Evening, it is the first time I've noticed one out on a Sunday.

I know both are the same if you know what I mean but are the ones Hatton's got Merits or actually Cadets as I was always led to believe they were Cadets

My understanding is they are Merits.

If you get the chance, take a look at the chassis plate by the front doors, they're badged as Volvos thus Merits. Why they ever carried DAF badges on the front is a legitimate mystery.

That sounds about right as I believe the Merit was a replacement for the Wright Crusader B6 from what I'm led to believe.

Solo MX08MGU got a rare outing on 297 St. Helens - Kirkby at 15:00 this afternoon (2 April). It appeared to replace Omnicity YN54NXL, which arrived a little late.

Is the Marshall Dart still here? Not seen it for a while but I presume it's used on schools if it is still around.

Marshall Dart P655HEG is still here - regular duty on the "Bingo" bus.
