V-DJC Darts
RE: V-DJC Darts
It's safe to say that 2342 is withdrawn as it's parked in Rhyl with parts missing (from what I could see today). Also, I'm sure that 2361 is still in service with Chester - whilst I haven't personally seen it in service lately (I'm barely in that area), I don't think that it's been reported as being withdrawn and it's definitely not parked out of use at Rhyl or Wrexham.

2355 and 2360 appear to be in a serviceable condition at Wrexham so I would say that they'd be down as unallocated rather than withdrawn.

It oughtn't to be, because it's currently declared SORN - as were 2343/44/54/55/59/60 last time I checked.

That's correct Dave - and I think 2361 was last noted as being stripped for spare parts

The tax of 2345 and 2352 expires on February 1st so I expect these two will be both be withdrawn this weekend. The remainder of V-DJC Darts (once 2352's tax expires) in service at Chester (2356-8) are taxed until next January

All of the ones that remain at Wrexham are just simply Pool Buses they are all in serviceable condition but i doubt they will ever see the road again, but nice for them to but i doubt it.

RE: V-DJC Darts
One thing i dont understand is why the Pool Buses that are already stored at Wrexham dont get used instead of all these loans as Green Lane had to reinstate 2345 so Wrexham could take 2219

I see what you mean but I think the tax on the V-DJCs in the pool fleet is due to expire very soon - most of the X-reg Darts are taxed until the end of the year

2345 wasn't reinstated to loan out 2219

2347 = 1st of February
2351 = 1st of February
2353 = 1st of February
2355 = SORN
2360 = SORN

I'd of rather you kept 2219 and sent us 2345 :P

You sure? i only ask as 2345 returned to service the same day 2219 turned up at Wrexham unless that happened by chance

I don't know what for but I know it's definitely not to cover for 2219. I don't think Green Lane would have loaned 2219 to Wrexham if it was going to leave them short of vehicles
