The recent service changes have triggered a round of reallcoations and repaints amongst the Solo fleet. Firstly the routine repaint of 269 in Line 4 livery has been completed and the bus is now in service.
Three more Solos have moved onto Line 2 with 286 now complete and 287 underway - both ex Line 16 livery. 294 is to follow ex Line 3 colours. These will cascade smaller Solos to pool fleet and 279 is already in paint with 281 to 283 to follow.
This will leave the Solo fleet as:
Line 2: 240-247, 249, 284-287, 294 (14)
Line 3: 258-260, 295-297 (6)
Line 4: 265-269, 271, 272 (7)
Line 5: 248, 250-257 (9)
Line 16: 288-293 (6)
Pool: 261-264, 273-283 (15)
Total = 57.
Meanwhile Metroriders 509 and 510 are understood to have been sold, the latter at least for preservation.
