I was otherwise occupied with visitors for much of today, but with some webcam help, did manage to establish that timekeeping was pretty good throughout the day.
King's Lynn were able to produce Geminis for all eleven turns today, so 20121 was (initially at least) rested. I didn't see Y6 or Y7 but they should have been some combination of 37567 and 20107. Whichever one did Y7 was given another job on arrival at Lynn at 18.15. 37565 on K1 18.02 to Lowestoft had ticket machine problems, so this was replaced, I suspect by 'The Beast'.
There was another evening swap when 37158 (I believe) on L8 was not fit to work the 18.50 Lynn to Peterborough, so 20121 was wheeled out to work it instead. This was in turn replaced for the 21.35 Lynn to Lowestoft by a Gemini (either 37574 or 37575) . 37572 remained off the road at Lynn today.
This is the unofficial blog for the Peterborough - Norwich XL bus service operated by First Group. Originally reporting the introduction of the 'Gemini' double deckers and the phasing out of coaches, the blog is now incredibly in its twelfth year and in 2021 the new fleet of state of the art double deckers enter their second year in traffic.
