First Hampshire is now under common management with First Devon & Cornwall (under Marc Reddy) and over the past few months it seems he has taken quite a few buses with him to Hampshire. Back in May two Dennis Darts 40959 42759 went to Portsmouth
Now in Portsmouth
In June we lost 38015 E215BTA which had been down in Cornwall but was originally a Plymouth bus when new.
Now in Weymouth
20305/6 T305/6JBC Volvo B7R coaches were transferred from Cornwall to Weymouth
Finally for May we saw quite a few of the original FDC Solos enter service at Hoeford:
53001 V801KAF, 53006/8/13 W806/8/13PAF

ReplyDeleteforgot to say they are cancelled from the 31st october.
ReplyDeletethere are more service cuts planned for before the end of the year too
ReplyDeleteI keep saying it but First are going to pull out of Devon and Cornwall!!!
ReplyDeleteJust logged the post for tomorrow morning with the latest cancellations.
ReplyDeleteThe trouble is that there have been rumours of First pulling out of Devon and Cornwall for years now. I still cant see it happening - but I am beginning to wish they would. Otherwise it will just die a lingering death
