Return To The City

Tuesday witnessed my first visit to Norwich City Centre in just under two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic! It was good to get the camera out to record sightings once more and it was noticeable that my 'new' mobile phone took better quality photos than the camera - will have to ask Santa for a replacement!

The first photo is Alfa Travel's Mercedes Benz Tourismo 111 BV19YFF picking up visitors to the city at the entrance to the Castle Mall Shopping Centre.

After some further photos at Castle Meadow, I made my way to the Bus Station along St Stephens Street where I noted Simonds' Volvo B9R / Caetano Levante SLK 886 (formerly FJ11 MLE) on its way to Roydon.

Being mid afternoon there were a number of vehicles laying over at the Bus Station including Konectbus Optare Versa 306 YJ60 KGV and ADL Enviro200MMC 202 YX69 NPG alongside First Eastern Counties 'excel' Scania 36917 YN69 XZX

I returned to St Stephens Street with latest First arrival Volvo B7TL 32333 LK53 LYT appearing on a UTCN (University Technical College Norfolk) contract working

Another interesting sighting was that of Konect's red East Lancs Myllennium 509 PN02 XCL heading for Swanton Morley

The final photo, taken with the mobile phone camera, shows one of Sanders Coaches new Volvo 5TLs in the form of 126 LL71 SHA on the X44 service to Sheringham
