Optare Solo for Torpoint

Yesterday I was told by a school girl that an Optare Solo was in Torpoint depot on school duties. This has now been confermed by her and another person as 53108/ EO02 FLH which has been painted into First livery and brought down from Essex. Apparantly the Optare Solo is acctually causing trouble. Luke Farley has been told my his sister (Bonnie Farley) that the Solo was doing the school run to Cremyll but it is usually an Olympian, they had to use a Trident which was doing the Millbrook run aswell. So then they parked at Trigantle fort and waited for 81C which was an Olympian to come so they took the kids off the Trident and the solo. Put the 81C passengers on the solo put the Cremyll people on the Olympian and put the Millbrook on the Trident so it sounds quite hectic. The buses were probebley over the limit. But the Solo probebley doesn't have a ferry lift yet so is eighter going to have to go al the way round the bridge again to get its ferry lift or be used on school runs and 181 which don't use the ferry. Onlt time will tell.
