Today at 1235 on the town service 365, instead of one of the normal 3 Optare Solo's allocated I had the pleasure of a ride on former T762 OHV762Y, complete with two doors. Presumably as only one Solo was running ( T plus Merc midi were the others) this was due to annual tests or similar. Good job no wheelchairs were out eh!

As with everything I write, strange feeling of bereavement! Not quite done yet, however - still four more years of post-London stuff to round up. This chapter has become so gargantuan, unfortunately, that it'll have to be pared down along with the rest of the copy, which is 75% over spec!

I wouldn't mind doing one on the DMS - and on the L as well (the ECW variety, independent of the fill-ins that came later).
