Saturday 31st July 2010 ~ The Missing Link

Now here's a rare sight, although some X1 s begin their journey at Wisbech, none actually terminate there - well not normally anyway. This was K2 this afternoon which was running 33 late with 37576 and the driver obviously had no intention of going through to Peterborough !

According to people in the know, the return of 37571 is imminent. It was involved in the fatal accident near Thorney at the end of May last year and has at last been repaired for further use. King's Lynn are expected to take delivery of 37571 in the next couple of days. Whether 37562 will remain is anyones guess. It is shown on the official First fleetlist, so they may have purchased it from Volvo from whence it came on loan.

Today 20127 was again flying the flag for the oldies and was 11 late on K18 through Walpole Highway westbound, only to return one minute early. K2 with 37576 was heavily delayed and terminated at Wisbech (see picture). Through passengers transferred to 37159 which was only 5 minutes behind on K3 16.15 King's Lynn to Peterborough.

37565 which began the day on K1 was removed at some point and it is not known what replaced it. 37562 was on a surprising Saturday turn, it worked L8 which starts and finishes at Lowestoft.
