I don't think the plan ever was for the darts to go after the Olympics apart from possibly the previous reserve ones that came back into service temporarily, most of which appear to have gone.
33174 is well established on Stockport routes having joined last year from Merseyside so won't be going anywhere anytime soon, whilst I would think 34054 would remain in service until at least December when the hybrids arrive.
Much as I would love to see the back of them with solos in their place, I think we may have to endure them a while longer.

never knew route 7 had double deckers put on them saw the queens jubliyed liverd bus on today

The 7 doesn't often have double deckers, usually only in the rush hour. That's usually where all the old darts finish up.
Nice to see the Queen's Jubilee buses still around. I think that remains until December.
