On another note, VDL SB120/Wright Merit 8266 has been given a fresh coat of white paint at Saltmeadows ready for branding into its new livery.

I think it is due at Durham at 11:06, not 100%, but I got off it about 10 am in Durham on it's up to Bishop
I caught it up to Bishop. Have recently managed to get photos of an "Angel" B5LH with it as well as a "Pronto" B7TL.
