First Great Yarmouth Latest

With a reduction in production at Bernard Matthews the requirement for buses to fulfil the contract has declined. Whilst no official word has come from First, it is thought that this means the future of the three Volvo B7s at Caister Road must be in doubt - although 66344 MV02VCX was active on the 6 between Market Gates and Bradwell during yesterday afternoon.

The future also seems bleak for the two ex First Essex Wright Solar bodied Scania 94UBs and it is also expected that Trident 32809 T809LLC will return to driver training duties at Norwich.

In the workshops, between Christmas and New Year, were Enviro400 33822 YX63LKM with multiple issues, Gemini 37578 AU58EDJ with suspension faults and President 32212 LT52WTV was being fitted with a new axle.

My thinks to First Great Yarmouth for the workshop report.
