The First 229 desti's that I've seen, either in service or parked up with desti showing, have all flipped over each time. Being an ex Arriva driver, I've offered my services to First, to pilot their unsure of route, drivers. So, far, they've not taken me up on the offer, do members think, I should reduce my £15 an hour fee? Lol :-p

Is there actually any damage to the bus, I've seen another photo where it's just got minor front corner damage, which could be repaired, ideally with some panels that are a different colour to the rest of the bus.

I was looking at the damage to the stone flower beds and if that was caused by the nearside front corner could be more than just a dented panel or two.

FWY Hybrid 39203 on the 55 in LBS. First time I've ever seen a hybrid in the station. FWY 40587 (Crusader) on the 49 FWY 60896 (Urban) on the 72
Bonus: I saw YN03 UVZ (737/747 branded) on the 29 in Leeds. Is it in a new livery or am I going mad? No photos exist of it in the 747/737 livery.

I saw it on the 17:10 232 from Wakefield last thursday and there is no way on earth that it can get to thorntons and back for a makeover in 4 days as it took the other vehicles a lot longer even those to be painted in standard tiger livery (831-834 took 3 to 4 weeks AT LEAST if my memory serves correctly) so WYBS no way it was 782 unless its had a jet from a Concorde fitted.

We had a lost bus today. Road Closures for resurfacing on Beckett Street, lead too a 42 bus being stuck on my street. Without knowledge of where he was going. According to my brother he was stuck on my street for an hour before driving off, in reverse of direction towards The bottom of Lincoln Green again. let's hope the driver got back to the diversion via Stoney Rock Lane.
