Citybus Fleet News

Thanks to Jason I can bring you a few more of the buses that have arrived at Milehouse recently starting with the loans from within Go Ahead Group

A couple of Volvo B7s from Go South Coast

[1942]	Y742TGH	Volvo B7TL	Plaxton President
[1972]	X572EGK	Volvo B7TL	Plaxton President

I believe these are more likely to be used for training purposes.

Scania Double deckers from Brighton & Hove so fare are

[ 685]	YN57FYP	Scania CN230UD	East Lancs Omnidekka	Brighton & Hove
[ 686]	YN57FYF	Scania CN230UD	East Lancs Omnidekka	Brighton & Hove
[ 687]	YN57FYG	Scania CN230UD	East Lancs Omnidekka	Brighton & Hove
[ 688]	YN57FYH	Scania CN230UD	East Lancs Omnidekka	Brighton & Hove
[ 904]	YN56FFD	Scania N94UD	East Lancs Omnidekka	Brighton & Hove
[ 916]	YN56FFT	Scania N94UD	East Lancs Omnidekka	Brighton & Hove

These are part of a ‘deal’ where several ex Oxford Airline coaches have gone to Brighton and will eventually come to Plymouth Citycoach once the Scania return to Brighton.

Of the East Yorkshire fleet down here so far YY52LCN now carries fleet number 1207

[ 669]	PJ02RBY	Volvo B7TL	Plaxton President	East Yorkshire
[ 670]	YY52LCK	Volvo B7TL	Plaxton President	East Yorkshire
[ 671]	YY52LCL	Volvo B7TL	Plaxton President	East Yorkshire
[ 677]	YY52LCU	Volvo B7TL	Plaxton President	East Yorkshire
1207	YY52LCN	Volvo B7TL	Plaxton President	East Yorkshire

There have been quite a few single deckers from Go South Coast so far confirmed are

[2002]	HF58HTG	Scania N230UB	Scania Omnicity	Go South Coast
[2003]	HF58HTJ	Scania N230UB	Scania Omnicity	Go South Coast
[2004]	HF58HTK	Scania N230UB	Scania Omnicity	Go South Coast
[2005]	HF58HTL	Scania N230UB	Scania Omnicity	Go South Coast

[2101]	YT59SFJ	Scania K230UB	Wright Solar	Go South Coast
[2203]	HF54HFR	Volvo B7RLE	Wright Eclipse Urban	Go South Coast
[2205]	HF54HFU	Volvo B7RLE	Wright Eclipse Urban	Go South Coast
[2209]	HF54HFY	Volvo B7RLE	Wright Eclipse Urban	Go South Coast
[7986]	HV66RBZ	Ford Transit	Ford	Go South Coast

Most if not all of the above are likely to remain in Plymouth releasing our newer Enviro 400s to Cornwall. With the reduced service levels in Plymouth at least over the coming weeks it will be interesting to see how many end up in use

The brand new Enviro single deckers have continued to arrive with many now in full Transport for Cornwall livery with these confirmed so far on my lists (there may be more I have missed)

These have all been added to my Go Ahead Group fleet list which is up to date for Plymouth Citybus at least. If you notice anything wrong, or have any others I have missed please let me know! Also if you have taken any photos you would like to share then feel free to email them in and I will publish them – along with any information you have as to why they are interesting – virtual bus spotting! We have a real treat coming up for tomorrow…

I am still plodding through all of the Cornwall services from 20th March which hopefully will be details later this week as I am now off for a weeks annual leave – and clearly wont be going out anywhere! Its not easy as there are quite a few inconsistences between the VOSA notices.and also Traveline & Transport for Cornwall leaflets and timetables. I am sure these will settle down eventually!
