St Stephen's Trio

A flying visit to Norwich today to visit relatives and for some shopping. With the weather much cooler and windier than of late, it wasn't the place to hang around for long period of time.

In between the shop visits, I caught three buses plying their trade in St Stephen's Street.

The first vehicle photographed was that of a Sanders Coaches Volvo B9TL with East Lancs Olympus bodywork. The 102 seater OU05KKB had just completed  the 12:28 X44 service from Sheringham. The bus has fleet number 103 and has the name Norfolk Centurian.
In the opposite direction I caught First Eastern Counties Optare Solo 53122 (EO02NFD) working the 27A to Hercules Road via Aylsham Road.

The final photo (below) is of a Norfolk Green Optare Tempo. No 111 (YJ56ATX) is seen arriving in St Stephen's Street with the 13:30 X29 service from Fakenham.

YJ56ATX previously worked for Tanat Valley
Coaches where she wore a special livery for the 775 service between Shrewsbury and Llanidloes. A picture of her working for Tanat Valley can be seen by clicking here.

Following the brief shopping expedition, it wasn't too long before we were back in the car for the warm journey home!
