RE: The annual dartslf.com awards - 2017 edition!
1. Blackpool Transport for their massive investment and rapid fleet overhaul.

2. Hard one this but I'm going for Merseytravel, I know it's not strictly a bus company, but their failure to act on the problems Avon had earlier in the year leaving many stranded on the Wirral especially.

3. Blackpool again with new new deliveries and orders in it's bus and tram fleet.

4. Award shared between Wrexham's Enviro 400 Cities and Preston's X2 Scanias.

5. The 2700s from Arriva hands down. The last proper heavyweight single decks.

6. The 4800 Volvo B5LHs from Arriva. If the Preston Scanias had have Gold they would have won this one.

7. I'm biased but 4101 making an appearance on the 49 in Southport on Christmas Eve the only time a B7/Alex made it onto that route.

8. Rossendale Transport selling out to Transdev or First closing Bury.

9. Arriva's new image. What a missed opportunity.

10. The Enviro 400City demonstrator used on Slabtrack earlier in the year.

11. Some of Cumfy's Solos. Their condition and presentation was appalling. Most withdrawn or soon to be.

12. Blackpool's next deliveries.

13. New high spec deckers for the 47 akin to the Wrexham Cities and Preston X2. The Pulsars on it are 8 years old March and this should be a flagship route being 25 miles long.
