I reported in January 2012 that former Swift Taxis Caetano Compass bodied Dart S511XCR had been acquired and placed in service by Shaws of Maxey, having received their blue and white colour livery

I am pleased to report, via the Anglia Thames Valley Bus Forum, that she continues to give sterling service being regularly employed on the Wednesdays only 306 Peakirk to Peterborough route

With the withdrawal of a Local Link route, the 306 service has seen a revival lately, with the vehicle previously used being unable to cope with the increased loadings

My thanks to Philip Slynn for his permission to use his photo to accompany this report
