That's interesting, thanks James.

Any idea what their using on the 343 shuttle as I thought thier Solos were tied up with regular services.

Also is the Daytime 351 a free service?

One of the ex Cornwall Darts on late evening 231's tonight. First time I've seen anything other than a B9 operating it since they won the tender back.
