First Great Yarmouth Latest

The latest information from First's Caister Road depot is that all serviceable buses are now available for duty and that includes the three saloons previously in the reserve fleet.

Heritage liveried vehicles Dart WA56 OAS and ALX 400
W219 XBD at First's Caister Road

One of the trio was Flying Banana Dart 42943 WA56 OAS which is seen here alongside Great Yarmouth Heritage liveried decker 32059 W219 XBD

Minor work continues on Enviro400 33808 YX63 LJO which has seen its recent engine replacement completed.

Also needing attention is Plaxton President bodied Volvo B7TL 32210 LT52 WTR which has had its gearbox removed ready for a new one to be fitted.

On the subject of engine replacement, First Ipswich 32488 AU53 HKF arrived at Caister Road earlier today for just that very reason - following a repaint.

In other First Ipswich news, repaints are being carried out elsewhere to 32490 AU58 HKH and 32655 AU05 MUY.

My thanks to First for the information and photo plus Clive Nixon for the Ipswich news
