HJC need new buses as they are 'Modernising' the fleet shortly with more Olympians after they have tested 49.

511 gearbox has broken and will not be fix. Could this signal a short reprieve for 616?

I like the matching seats, looks like Arriva recovered the anti-vandal screen and the LED destination screen before it left. Yet another set of roller blinds will be replaced!!!!!

Arriva fitted this Flip Dot destination out of one of the ALX300's, it was posted somewhere on here a couple of months ago.
