"The "Red Arrows" X1 and 921 services currently operate with a batch of Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 bodied Volvo B9TLs new in 2011 and 2012, and are now beginning to evaluate suitability of different vehicle types on these routes."

(26 Dec 2018, 11:03 am)Jamie M wrote Act first, think later!

I don't drink but I refuse to move from bed until its time to get ready for work. Not that I'd be allowed to work if I did drink...!

49'lite will be doing last 2x 56 tonight
6082 TVT will be doing last 2x X1.

Both of which will be driven by members of this very forum, although I'll leave it up to the pictures to work out who done what when!
