Stagecoach has registered extra X24 journeys between Fife and Glasgow for games. So we could see on top of the 20min service, 4 ph to Glasgow.

Reported elsewhere as just two extra later evening journeys back from Glasgow.

At least Stagecoach made an effect to allow people to get back at night.
But there seems to be some uncertainty over your claims of 4ph in your previous post.
Not sure whether it has been mentioned here, but 33434 and 33436 have made their way down south from Perth to join the Stagecoach East Midlands fleet at Lincoln. The plan appears to be that they will form part of the allocation for Newark outstation.

Am I right in thinking that 33434 was the original Goldie spare when Perth got their first batch of Goldie E300's?
I'm guessing the other dart (33435) is staying up in Perth?
Yes, 33434 is the former Goldline spare - quite luxurious for use on town routes in Newark!
Not heard that 33435 is joining the fleet, I think these are the only two Darts due - the rest are MANs from the North East and Aberdeen (I think!).

It still had the ability to rattle your teeth out...

From reports it's better than some of the 'native' examples...
The X reg darts were originally Perth, and they went away elsewhere for a few years and a few of them came back.
With this being Perth, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if they were to appear back there in the future...

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think 33439 has been withdrawn and 34699 which is one of the recently transferred 05 Darts from Carlisle has replaced it...

A London Trident has appeared at Blochairn complete with all roller blinds and other London stuff. Looks like it was used on route 51 (Woolwich - Orpington). I'm guessing this is one of the Tridents being used for the Games?

No, Its been said Stagecoach has lost a good amount of School work in North east fife, mainly due to the tighter competition from other companies. Stagecoach could do with freeing up space.
Dunfermline Town network is believed to be getting a overhaul.

Don't think so, two of them are now sitting there...

Noticed today that one of the ex Carlisle Darts (34696) is in Perth. It was doing a 34 from Perth out to Stanley/Bankfoot.
Is this an actual Perth vehicle or is it a Strathtay motor?

34696 has replaced the Dart at Blair, which is used on their 34 working.

I noticed that 33438 is still going around Perth, surely that must be popping off shortly as well?
I was quite shocked though to see so many R reg Oly's that are in Perth, I know they are mostly used on the school runs, but also they do service routes quite frequently as well. Perth & Kinross Council need to get an age limit in place like Fife Council have as that would force Perth to either transfer low floor motors from other depots or purchase new ones...

Travel Dundee has picked up at least 10 of the School runs.
Fife council will be VERY happy as its shared out the school contracts.

Still un full London spec, a sister vehicle from 17515's batch, 17500, was spotted by myself at the SVBM today, parked behind the exhibition hall, and with no roller blinds, and still has East London legals, Stagecoach London fleetnames, and also East London O disc.
