I certainly thought I was 'going bananas' this morning when 37572 passed my window with a new bold advert for a movie "Space Chimps 2". I don't know what surprised me more, the inane title or the fact that this was obviously a sequel !!! As the day went on, it became apparent that several of the buses which overnighted at King's Lynn had been similarly adorned.
Last night L10 ran west of Lynn with 37569 (off Y9) with 20127 retiring to Vancouver Avenue. 127 was Ok again today though and worked K16 which ends at Lowestoft. This spoiled (if that is the right word) an otherwise low floor day. Even 37569 on K4 which required a service at Lowestoft was swapped for a sister vehicle in the shape of 37564.
Punctuality was better today with worst performer being 37157 on K18 15.35 from Peterborough and this was only 8 late.
37562 worked Y6 throughout yesterday and today it came out of Lowestoft on L11 paving the way for it to resume its normal duty on K17 tomorrow.
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. To contact me with your observations/experiences on the XL, email gerardtcc@gmail.com .
