First Great Yarmouth Update

The latest news from First's Caister Road depot includes some changes regarding the former South Yorkshire Volvo B7RLE's. 69022 SF55 UAP has been withdrawn from service and currently resides in Norwich with its place taken here by 69043 SF55 UBC. 69033 SF55 UBT is still on loan at Lowestoft whilst 69020 SF55 UAN currently requires new ring gear

Former First Ipswich 66986 KX05 MHU is on loan again from Norwich and StreetLite 47504 SN64 CPY requires a window replacement

A few of the double deck fleet are in for attention to their engines. Enviro400 33805 YX63 LJK has received a brand new one whilst ALX400 30960 YJ51 RDU has a reconditioned one with its gearbox currently needing refitting. 37174 SF07 FDE also requires a new engine and possibly a gearbox too.

My thanks to First for the update.
