The first shows Sanders Coaches 525 BV22 HBO, an MCV eVoRa new in April 2022, seen at The Buttlands in Wells prior to working the 1445 Coasthopper service CH1 to Cromer.
Next is Lynx (Coastal Red) 65 YX72 OLP, an Alexander Dennis (ADL) Enviro400D MMC new in October 2022, also seen at the Buttlands working the 1400 service 36 from Fakenham to Hunstanton and King’s Lynn
Our third photo features Lynx 82 Alexander Dennis Enviro400D UWW 2X travelling along The Quay at Wells when operating the 1300 Coastliner 36 service from Fakenham to King’s Lynn. David tells me that the old loading gantry is a Grade II listed building which linked the Maltings building with the harbour moorings. Now a multi-use community facility, it has been retained and preserved.
The final photo shows Holkham Holiday Parks Limited MX72 HLD, a Mellor Sigma 7 electric bus new in September 2022. The bus began operating a shuttle service in 2022 along Beach Road from the terminus near The Quay to Wells Beach, a distance of about 0.9 miles/1.5 km.
The service was introduced following the decision by Holkham Estates to close the Wells Harbour Railway which had operated the service from 1976 to 2021. The railway was dismantled and sold to the Lappa Valley Railway in Cornwall at the end of the 2021 season.
My thanks to David for his photos with their descriptions which proved very helpful. All photos from the day can be viewed at http://www.ipernity.com/doc/davidslater-spoddendale/album/1348760
