That green looks.... different. It really doesn't go with the red!

Wow that is ugly

Hope they take that recharge your batteries tagline off before it enters service as that would be somewhat false advertising, only way you are likely to be able to charge a phone on that would be by plugging it into the Ticketer machine

3510 UTN 510Y is still living on with South Yorkshire Transport Trust -

3654 has gone from its old 'Black Cats' livery, to another for Tyneside based Pride Radio.

Former NatEx/GNE Training Bus/Scholars Coach 7090 (MH54 MBX) seen on a day trip on the A69 this morning still going strong still in it's last red/white livery with M&I Travel
Former GNE 3828, S828OFT, will apparently transfer to Stagecoach West as part of that company's purchase of South Gloucestershire Bus & Coach.

Corporate Solar with one of those taglines telling passengers about 'the features of other vehicles' is parked up in the grounds of the scout hut at Woodstone Village.

Didnt get id as I was driving unfortunately.

It is visible from the road (and I'm guessing the path that runs towards Bournmoor) if anyone wants to check it out

Being static is possibly the best idea for that thing!


I did wonder if it would be static, the position it was parked in, didn't really lend itself to be a temporary position or one that would be used as a parking spot.

I've heard Costa del Woodstone Village is lovely this time of the year!


Enjoy activities and sleepovers in our fabulous Go Scouting Activity bus.

Wish they could have kept them on use up here. How can they run Non DDA buses in Bristol.

South Glos ran a load of schools contracts; there was a total of eight Olympians (and one Volvo Citybus!) transferred across.  Stagecoach have stated that they're intending to replace them with newer vehicles, probably assorted elderly Tridents, in the New Year - if you want to buy 3828, you've not got long to save up your pennies!

And 3828 has now been stood down from service, being transferred yesterday to Stroud for storage.
Can anyone remember which company the old Sunderland Connect hybrids went too?
