Not a huge amount to report which is just as well while my house refurbishment continues. Main news involves the absence of 33808. This bus was involved in an accident at Scarning on Saturday May 30th when an oncoming car is believed to have veered into the path of the bus. Damage to 33808 was considerable but nobody on board was injured thankfully. 33808 is currently at Full Circle undergoing major repairs as a result. A diversion to the X1 route in Thorney is currently seeing services use the Thorney Bypass and Station Road rather than Wisbech Road with temporary stops in situ.
Next update when time permits and my apologies for the extra brief update.
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 .
