A new year and a not so new Dart!

My first journey of they year and I was subjected to 40185 M610SBA (Well I did ask for variety!) working the 8:03 from Lowestoft. 40187 M612SBA was seen heading through Worlingham with X2 SNIS up; is this a school relief (34156 working school turn)

40187 became a victim of the ice having to reverse out of the Thurton bus stop as the wheels kept spinning... 60306 looks to have had ice issue also. On the up turn however we were graced with THE BEAST (20107 N607APU) working the 6:53/9:15/10:08 turns. The rest of the day appeared to be Royale/Paltine operated (I didn't see anything after 2pm though)

Worth mentioning is that today I saw my first First 23 and X3 (well 2 of the latter) all operated by Scanias all containing 3 passengers! Interestingly 5 minutes after the X3 arrived a KonectBus 3 pulled in with 3/4 a bus full!

ALLIANCE OF EAST OF ENGLAND BUS BLOGS

It has been brought to our attention that a small number of bus company employees have expressed an intolerance to the blogs we write for various personal reasons. Whilst we have no intention of upsetting bus company staff, we remind them that they operate within a public domain, providing a public service, and that as yet, taking photographs of buses is not an illegal activity, even though some drivers may fear it is an infringement of their civil liberties. Similarly, noting vehicle numbers, duties etc etc is of interest to the majority of our readers and despite a certain amount of unjustified intimidation we pledge to continue doing this as long as it is legal to do so. On a brighter note we would like to thank the majority of people and companies in the industry that support enthusiasts in this hobby.
