Dennis Dart no. 56 on service 1 at Ocean Terminal and as from the 14th of February 2010 this service would no longer come to this destination, instead terminating at Easter Road (it's usual Sunday lay-over). The route would therefore be a little shorter, though not by much and I imagine many a
passenger will be disappointed at the 1 not going to the vast shopping centre here.
At the rear, note a Volvo B7 RLE, fleet number 136 on service 36. Along with 137 and 138 this bus was originally intended to be branded to service 29 'Best Deal', but the need for 15 of these on that route was not required and so three of them can now be used on any single decker diagram.

Adult diamond darters are around three to five inches long, with the largest individual collected measuring 3.03 inches (7.7 cm). The fish is thought to live two to seven years. It is one of two species in its genus, which also includes the related crystal darter, Crystallaria asprella. Diamond darters bury into the sand of a stream bottom and ambush the insects that serve as their prey. The males set up and protect breeding territories. Photo credit US Forest Service/USFS

Several Darter's have been flying over my pond laying eggs, causing confusion to the Damsel Flies......
This one is newly emerged and taking a rest inside my kitchen wondering how to return to the pond ? I opened the window further, a tickle from my finger and it was away....

The €3bn DART Underground project in Dublin ‘will not proceed as currently designed’ but will instead be ‘redesigned to provide a lower cost technical solution’, Minister for Transport, Tourism & Sport Paschal Donohoe announced on September 22.
DART Underground is a proposed tunnel which would link the existing line into Dublin’s Connolly station from the north with Inchicore on the line running west out of Heuston station. There would be stations at Docklands, Pearse, St Stephen’s Green, Christchurch, Heuston and Inchicore.
This would form a major element of a €4bn DART Expansion Programme, which would also include electrification to Drogheda, Hazelhatch and Maynooth; an increase in frequencies on existing DART routes; four-tracking from Park West to Inchicore; level crossing removals; city centre re-signalling and depot expansion.
DART Underground received planning consent in 2011. However, the business case has been updated as part of the finalisation of a long-term transport plan for the Greater Dublin Area, and while the overall DART Expansion Programme was assessed as economically positive with a 1·4:1 benefit to cost ratio, the National Transport Authority said the business case for DART Underground prepared by Iarnród Éireann indicates that its development under the current railway order ‘is not economically justified’, with a 0·8:1 Benefit to Cost Ratio.
NTA believes that it would be possible to redesign the tunnel project to reduce its cost, while a substantial part of the benefits of the DART Expansion Programme could be derived from the non-tunnel elements.
Options for the redesign include a shorter tunnel running only a far west as Heuston rather than Inchicore; a shorter tunnel running only between Heuston and Pearse where trains would turn back; and/or reducing the number of underground stations.
Accepting the NTA’s recommendation to rethink the project, Donohoe said DART Underground remains a ‘key element’ of integrated transport plans, and funding for the redesign would be provided with a view to construction beginning after 2020. Existing compulsory purchase powers will not be activated, and new legal powers would be sought for the redesigned project.
‘As government works to further stabilise the public finances, we must continue to seek the best value for taxpayers’ money in everything we do’, said Donohoe. ‘A project of such magnitude - in the order of €4bn - has to be designed and delivered in a way that best ensures cost-effectiveness for the taxpayer and the state.’
In response to the announcement, Iarnród Éireann said it welcomed ‘support at government and National Transport Authority level that the DART Expansion Programme is crucial for national economic development and addressing traffic congestion in the Greater Dublin Area and beyond’, and the intention to fund redesign of DART Underground.

Centrebus L712 JUD had been new to Thames Transit in Oxford as seen a dual doored Dart, which in itself was an unusual build for outside London. Centrebus has taken a large slice of the Luton/Dunstable routes over the past few years and favoured the Dart for its big bus operation L712 JUD passed for scrap in Jan 11

Common Darter - RHS Hyde Hall, Rettenden, Essex. This is the same one that I got with my macro lens and extn tubes posted previously.
My Mum (who i think might be going mad) has put up a dart board in her house....
I was the first person to put a hole in the wall, but since then i have improved :)
This is the shot i can only dream of making!!
this was a complete accident! i was just minding my own business, blocking the exhibit in the aquarium, and i happened to get this shot with this amazing lighting! ive been trying to duplicate it ever since!
Much of the latest generation offer ings in the bus world are of little interest to me with rattly sewing machine engines auto gearboxes and driven by uncaring drivers in T-shirts. However occasionally I do record an image or two of something I consider unusual. This bug-eyed Carlyle designed Dennis Dart was parked adjacent to "The Common" (which has typically become tarmaced over and given up to the motor car!) in Sandbach.
