Operations went well today with only odd minor delays. I think all coaches completed their booked turns except 20500 which failed at Dereham at 07.50 on K20 with loss of power. Fitters from Lynn attended and a faulty throttle sensor was diagnosed and repaired. The second half of diagram K20 which is the afternoon empty Lynn - Norwich turn and 17.17 to Peterborough was (by process of elimination, as it was not viewed) a rejuvenated 20121.
Michael noted 20104 and 20127 out on the X2s through Beccles today. 20106 is reported as being at Norwich Vulcan Road and Nick Field says 20115 is due to join it in the rail replacement pool very shortly after receiving a new engine.
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.
