There's been a 67 plate bus on the 701 recently, I'm not sure if it's a Streetlite or a Nu-Vibe though.

They've had that one since new, often on Team Valley Sainsbury's when I've seen in.

I understand that GCT have two new Mellor Bluebirds, 18-platers.

Photo posted on Facebook a few days ago identifies one as BF18YRW.

A little bit of digging on the DVLA Tax Checker confirms the other to be BF18YRX.

Another new one of GCT, SJ18USE

335 is Bluebird free today with the Enviro and Solo making an appearance
Rare to see anything other than a bluebird at all, never mind two buses covering.
