RE: Stanley Travel - Andreos1 - 05 Apr 2015
Sedgeletch Road is going to be closed for a couple of months - saw the sign for it earlier.
It will affect the 452 and 968 massively.

is Optare Solo YJ11OJK still with stanley travel
RE: Stanley Travel - andy1977 - 08 Apr 2015
(17 Mar 2015, 5:17 pm)Robert The first Optare Solo SR 7.2m funded for by Durham County Council arrived at Stanley Travel today. It is KX15 BLZ and will be used on the Cathedral Bus services in Durham. They are the permanent replacements to the electric solos and will transfer from operator to operator as the contract moves operators. Another 2 are to follow.
KX15 BLZ is on hire from Dawson's only while a solution is sort to the problems with the 3 electric solos.
no confirmation yet as to if the EV's will be upgraded or replaced with new model EV's or other low emission vehicles.
3 charging points were very much on the wall at 9am this morning

That will be for the Sedgletch Road closure.
Surprised to see no mention of the 452 or GNE 453 on there mind.

No, following the arrival of KX15 BLZ, it has left the fleet.

Very smart addition! Arrived on Thursday
RE: Stanley Travel - S813 FVK - 19 Apr 2015
Wouldnt be surprised if this has been purchased to replace TX63 STX which was withdrawn after being involved in an RTA.
RE: Stanley Travel - Jimmi - 20 Apr 2015
The 15 reg Solo SR is currently on the 23.
RE: Stanley Travel - omnicity4659 - 20 Apr 2015
(20 Apr 2015, 2:32 pm)Scott According to Buses mag 2 Optare Solos are new to replace the electric ones.
Almost every thing in Buses is BS! Arriva 7609 is apparently an Enviro400!

At a guess Durham CC will have ordered 2 diesel ones and Stanley will operate them, however they currently have a demo/loan bus to cover until they arrive.
RE: Stanley Travel - S813 FVK - 20 Apr 2015
KX15 BLZ was apparently one of the vehicles ordered. However, judging by no others arriving, it is just a loan.
RE: Stanley Travel - omnicity4659 - 20 Apr 2015
KX15 BLZ was a nice ride, but the headrests are like scaffolding and I thought that we were going to crash into shops due to it being wider than the street. DCC and ST need Slimline versions of the Solo, if they already haven't got one.

ON02 STX and E3 STX are both Slimlines. I was under the impression that KX15 was too.
