From Luke Farley we have details of Saturdays Celebrate Buses in Plymouth event:

This is the planned departure list from Bretonside during the event. Please be aware that vehicles and services may be subject to change depending on operating circumstances. We may add duplicate or additional journeys, depending on demand and vehicle availability. For a more detailed timetable, potted history and more, we will have illustrated programmes on sale on the day - be sure to pick yours up

.

We are pleased to announce further details about the Celebration of Buses in Plymouth, on September 5th. We have permission to use Bretonside Bus Station for the day, and this will form the focal point of the event - with the free heritage bus rides operating from here. Vehicles that are planned to be in operation on the day:

824 KDV - Western National Bristol FLF

468 FTT - Western National Bristol FLF

AFJ 706T - Western National Bristol VRT

LFJ 847W - Western National Bristol VRT

VDV 134S - Western/Southern National Bristol VRT

270 KTA - Western National Bristol SUL

L401 VCV - Western National Dennis Dart

 

These will be operating on a variety of routes, including to Plymstock, Torpoint and Yelverton. It is also planned that the final service 81, from Plymouth to Torpoint, will operate using a convoy of the route's vehicles in service on the day.

At the moment the weather isnt looking too bad either so lets hope for a really good turnout to bid farewell to First. For all their faults they will be missed!
