Arriva Leicester

3765 and 3810 have had their branding removed with 3764 (which has been on the 29 over the last few days) and 3811 expected to follow soon. This is so Arriva can max out the full-length single-deckers available for the 29 and 29A rather than a bunch of Optares. No doubt this'll mean more of them on the 14 and 53.

Anyone know which Cadet/Commander was on the 53 today?

Bustimes isn't showing it, but I definitely saw one of them out on it.

I found a picture on Flickr. It was 2737.

3307 has now moved to Milton Keynes.

4516 now has a badly damaged nearside rear panel after I witnessed it being scraped on the kerb while being towed back to the depot. Elsewhere, they've found a logo to put on 4520 so that looks like its accident last summer never happened, and 2737 has now moved to Luton.

2991 also made the move to Luton with 2737, while 2990 has returned to Shrewsbury.

And for the most unusual allocation I've seen and you'll probably ever hear, MIRA branded 2000 on the 84/85.

2957 is the first of the newer Versas to be repainted into the new livery.

A bit of dual-door action on the Uppingham Road, in Leicester, on 23/01/2020, with 3103 - YX17 NLD noted in use on route 55.

Another 2 Solos have left Thurmaston 2408 2409 now moved to Cannock

4504 now has had its front offside corner panel replaced with a red one. Safe to say, it looks very tacky and cheap.

I had 4212 on the 85 the week it returned to service, and its absence from November was definitely worth it presumably while it had work done. If you like a good scream you should try it out. I'd never heard anything like it from a B9TL.

The low bridge in Nuneaton has finally come down. Today marked the start of the ability for DD's to go onto the 158, and 3 DB250's were on the route today, with 4754, 4760 and 4764 being the first ones to do the full route to Nuneaton.

4509 has had similar treatment on the nearside.
