two of the 'new' buses at Roundtree Way yesterday |
As expected. seven of the remaining twelve Volvo B9TL Wright Eclipse-Gemini 2s arrived from Leeds at Roundtree Way over the weekend. Many have now been de-branded and checked for service with three of them due to make it out on the road today. These are
36194 BN12JYU,
36195 BN12JYV and
36196 BN12JYW. As a result of these incoming buses, a number of Tridents will be withdrawn and the first victim is
33058 LN51GJK which has been stood down from service.

Leeds in Somerset |
The buses have been on loan at Bristol for the last few weeks which made for an interesting photograph incorporating the LEEDS fleetname alongside the "First Somerset & Avon Ltd" legal lettering.
Yesterday gave me the first opportunity to photograph a Trident with the new style Network Norwich branding whilst Volvo B7L Wright Eclipse
66348 MV02VDC is the first of it's type to be done. She will be followed by
66333 MV02VBY once it returns from repaint at Simon Morris.
