They have a white one but it's not ready for service yet so when this is ready I believe this will act as a spare one .I don't know if they can use the 03 reg as a emergency if the street lite of the rd

I'm sure the first time it moves you'll be there with a picture.

Have to give them credit for getting something newer, it means they are taking this very seriously.

Isn't there a requirement that tendered routes are operated by vehicles in fleet livery displaying fleetnames? Never seen a fleetname as a windscreen sticker like on the Streetlite!
They're certainly not the only one:
Claribels don't use buses in fleet livery on their tendered 604 and 424, they use 17 reg E200 in plain white.
They've been doing that for the past 2 years now.
Local Routes
94/95, 11A/11C, 28.

The Claribels vehicles had fleetnames applied some time ago

I clearly said fleet livery, not fleet names.
The E200 are in plain white.
They do have a front fleetname on the E200, but so does that Streetlite.

Still on there for the last journey of the day, driver was telling everyone at the stand that it was the 303 too though. Kinda annoyed since I came out to try their new Streetlite.

Driver said it had broken down and it's being fixed, and that it should be back in a few days. I didn't press for any more info as I was getting off the bus at the time, sorry!

Probably teething troubles and if it's been stood a bit until travel express bought it, who knows what issues may crop up in use.

Travel express y184knb back out on 32 today ..... Sounds hellfire too with its blowing exhaust

Busman Jamie

Seems to be reinstating some of the older darts.... More work for them?

X703 UKS might be the next one to be put back on the road
