With services having settled down yesterday teatime using the normal route westbound out of Wisbech, it was a surprise today to find that few drivers were using the normal route out of Wisbech.
For the record, noted were Y7 with 37572, L11 with 37160, K17 11 late with 37574, K19 37579 and K2 with 37570. Diagrams 6, 8-10, 12 - 14, 18 & 1 all took the A1101 out of Wisbech westbound.
A full low floor service was in operation again today. I am told that Great Yarmouth currently have a queue of vehicles awaiting MOT and that 20107 is currently dumped in with the withdrawn vehicles awaiting attention. Mike F reports that 20115 was out on service 20 to Taverham this afternoon and 20121 was absent from Vancouver Avenue this afternoon, so may have gone to the MOT testing station.
One thing which I omitted from yesterday's report was an unusual working for 37575 reported by John W. It worked KL 7110 diagram and was seen on th 08.20 43 to North Wootton. This is thought to have been because it was required for non-routine maintenance. It was again absent from the X1 today. John adds "The 08.40 41 was 20109. If it had arrived back from schools it must have got a move on. 20123 was in about 9ish which is the usual time of arrival back of the schools coaches.
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.
