There's only one Sapphire Pulsar 2 in Wales. It is 2935 which is allocated to Rhyl

Is that temp loan because of one of the rhyl sapphire deckers off the road in a RTA?

Permanent transfer for the X51 due to cutbacks on Manchester service 130.

Just had my annual weekend in Llandudno and on Saturday 12th visited Colwyn Bay and Bangor.
2156 spent the morning on the 24 at Colwyn Bay, then shifted to the 13 ( saw it at Llandudno Junction at 1515 running 20 minutes late so possibly covering for a breakdown. 2157 spent the day on the 25 to Bodnant and 2158 was on the 26 Llandudno local.

On the 12 in the morning were 4536/4538-4554 though 4483 had replaced one of these by the evening. All Pulsars bar 3172 were out on the 5 to Bangor and Caernarvon.

847 and 911 were on the 27 at Colwyn Bay and 908 and 915 were out in Bangor on the 67/78 circle along with several Solos. Did not see any other Darts but did not go to Bangor Depot - it is a long walk from the 5 bus stop and advancing years are taking their toll. Did not see any DDs in service. The 4/x4 was a mixture Pulsars and Cadets as were all other routes bar the 62 which was ons Solo and three Pulsars - the Solo left Bangor with standing passengers as far as I could see.

4555 was on the 12 yesterday Sunday so 4537 was the only E40 Sapphire not seen.
