Saturday 11th September 2010 ~ Well Behaved Buses

37571 negotiates the obstacles in Dereham Market Place at lunchtime, later it was taken out of service (see below)
37157 seen on L12 07.55 Lowestoft - Peterborough having just rejoined the A47 after its toddle round Toftwood

Not quite what it seems. 37565 was in a queue of slow moving traffic as it headed east on K4 approaching Draytonhall Lane near Scarning.
37563 has not been seen since last Saturday when it worked L8 which finishes at Lowestoft. As we have said before, it seems prone to relatively lengthy spells off the road. 37564 remained off the road this week following its failure at Thorney on 24th August.
 Fortunately the remaining fleet comprising 37565 - 579 & 37156 - 37160 were well behaved today, giving an all low floor service. One can never account for some things though and 37571 on K17 had to be taken out of service for cleaning this afternoon and I am assuming (hopefully correctly) that a repaired 37577 took over. I say hopefully as there was nothing else ! With 20107 being off at Lowestoft for servicing, the service simply ran out of spares. In theory Yarmouth could always come to the rescue with 20115, 20126 or 34108 I suppose.
