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

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.

There's not much on there, but the following jumped out.


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.

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.
