Former Jersey Dart Dart 43867 EG52FHC undergoing tests at Caister Road on 3rd June. She is now in service at Lowestoft |
Five Darts have been withdrawn from service and remain at Caister Road awaiting their last journey. The five are 43440 P440NEX, 43441 P441NEX, 43446 P446NEX, 43465 R465CAH and 43468 R468CAH
43435 P435NEX is currently living on borrowed time as she will be withdrawn when another ex Jersey Dart enters service. With the transfer away of 43487 R687DPW to Lowestoft as another Jersey Dart enters service in Great Yarmouth, there will then be only three Dennis Dart SLFs remaining in service in the town
Following work on them at Caister Road, both Enviro200 44512 DK57SXF and Dart 43867 EG52FHC have now gone into service in Lowestoft
Repairs to Great Yarmouth's own Dennis Dart SLF/ ADL Pointer 42929 SN05EAJ have been completed, whereas Volvo Olympian/ Alexander Royale 34111 W431CWX requires attention to its engine mounts
My appreciation goes to Ryan for the detailed report
Hi Roy,
ReplyDeleteWhat are the remaining 3 as I have 5 on my list? 43435/70/8/80/1. Have 2 of them been withdrawn/transfered anywhere and I've missed it...
Cheers
Sam
Hi Sam
ReplyDeleteThe remaining three Dart SLFs will be 43470/80/1. 43435 will be withdrawn when the next Jersey exile enters service and the current hire of 43478 to Lowestoft has turned into a permanent move (transfer)
Hope that clarifies the situation
Regards
Roy
