20107 was sent out on K2 this morning, so it was not surprising that upon arrival at Lowestoft at 12.10 it was changed for 37569 which was spare. Earlier Lowestoft had sent out 37157 on L8, 37565 on L10, 37567 on L11 and 37570 on L12 and even after using 37569, still had 37156 spare.
Temporary lights on the A47 at Thorney Toll affected afternoon services from Peterborough. Noted were Y13 with 37571 11 late, K14 with 37574 13 late, K15 with 37575 18 late and 37566 on K16 19 late. In the other direction, timekeeping was good although K18 with 37159 was 7 late.
37563 was kept in at Lynn today with its air problem and 37579 continues to receive attention here. Des reports a series of minor delays today, but he did manage to convert a 12 minute departure from Swaffham into an on time at Norwich with 37574 on K14.
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.
