Post here your first bus in 2013! Big Grin

I suspect mine will be the usual Stagecoach Enviro 200 on the second 4 bus of the day; either the ADL Enviro 200 dart, or an Enviro 200 bodied MAN 14.240! Will get a fleet number on Wednesday Big Grin

I'll try and get a photo of mine on Wednesday morning when I'm going to the train station to meet all of my friends from school to get the train down to London!
No idea what it'll be yet though... Depends when we need to be down there for!

Cool! Have a fab trip Smile

If you're taking the Grand Central service, it's absolutely brilliant! Only made one return trip to London, back in June, amazing service it is! Big Grin

Ta!
I think I am..! Wasn't too keen on East Coast when I went with them in the summer holidays this year - carriages out of bounds, plugs sockets didn't work, my seat had been taken...

I wonder if the pilot was lucky enough to get an SPD on the 56 as his first journey... Big Grin

Andreos1 needn't worry about luck though... Have you been on the 71 yet, A1? Wink

No, not yet.

Last bus of the year was a Citaro operated 4 on Tuesday night (almost a Renown on a 78) and chances are 1st bus of the year, will be a 4 1st thing tomorrow morning.

Haven't been on a 71 since late November and that was a Loylne!
(as was the time prior to that)
