easyCoach.co.uk watch - Thursday 26th July.

Tempo YJ56WUD failed in Gobowen on Wednesday (25th July) and was towed back to Rhosymedre on the Thursday morning – it is understood that it will be off the road for a while.

Dart KP51SYR was to be seen working on the 2D alongside Tempo MX05EXZ. The Dart almost being on time when seen whereas the Tempo was some 10 plus minutes late.

With the Dart being moved away from what it appeared to be its intended route of the 64 Llangollen to Glyn Ceiriog / Llanarmon DC it was interesting to see that on Thursday 26th Tempo MX05ELC was allocated to that service. It was pleasing to see that contrary to what was seen on a previous occasion it did visit the Llangollen Health Centre, the Pengwern Housing estate and the Froncysyllte Memorial Hall.

On the local Llangollen Blog site http://llanblogger.blogspot.com- it indicates that Denbighshire Council are putting a back up taxi on the route to Pengwern until the normal service is resumed. An indication being given that this will be in August.

The two vehicles on the 2 Oswestry service on Thursday 26th July were Tempos YJ56WVV and YJ56WUE. In the morning both were running considerably late. The drivers of these vehicles take their statutory break when they arrive into Wrexham at about lunchtime when the service changes from xx32 to xx02. Strangely whilst the 1302 service did operate the 1402 service from Wrexham (and 1507 from Oswestry) did not. The vehicle involved, WUE, remained at King St and then worked the 1602 service to Oswestry actually leaving King Street a few minutes early. The 1502 service operated by WVV left King Street only 4 minutes late.

The 44 Barkers Lane service, worked by Solo MX07JOU appeared to be working more or less on time as was the 42 Wrexham Industrial Estate service operated by Solo LXZ6238 (YJ06YSE). Unfortunately this latter Solo lost its front number plate during the afternoon.
