My nearest former Wilko in Bexleyheath (London) has been turned into a B&Ms, and its signage says it will open on the 31st of May. If anyone is wondering how I know of this, I have seen this from being out today and I happened to find it in the place of where Wilko was.

This appears to be correct for at least 35285 as it has been repainted into the cooperative livery, as seen on Flickr (the image below is not mine). However I haven’t seen anything relating to 35261 being repainted as of yet. https://www.flickr.com/photos/159104080@N04/53728152044/in/dateposted/

I’ve found a photo on Flickr of 33987 fully repainted into the cooperative livery on the 25. The ph I have found is below - it is not my photo. https://www.flickr.com/photos/188585535@N04/53727185676/in/faves-199192809@N03/

Sorry, but that’s not right, especially considering that they are already painting existing, non electric buses elsewhere in First Group. Here is an example, which is Wrightbus StreetDeck 35273 (in South Yorkshire), having been repainted a couple weeks back. Photo (not mine) liked below to show...

Looks like the next BYD Enviro 400 EV to be repainted into the new cooperative livery is 38407. Photo (not mine) linked below, although it doesn’t seem to be branded yet...

Now I really know I am getting older. The reason I give for this is because I have sat my first written GCSE exam (I sat Combined Science Biology) this morning - hopefully I have good results from these exams!

A user on bustimes.org has got a list of them. The one I picked up on (LV24ROU) is allocated fleet number 49902. 49901 (the bus that the edit is on) has been registered LV24RPY. The edit that confirms this information is linked below. https://bustimes.org/accounts/users/3392/

It seems like Stagecoach’s new Mercedes-Benz Sprinters for the Bee Network have commenced delivery - the first one, plated LV24ROU has been delivered. I do not know the fleet number it has been allocated as of yet. Photo (not mine) linked below...

To the best of my bus knowledge, it stands for ‘Vehicle Off Road’.

I think it’s because the vehicle lists are created by what is/have been tracking on the system. If they haven’t tracked on a route yet, then I don’t think they would be on the list yet. Source: https://bustimes.org/rules

Club Marbella - Crown Resorts (Calahonda, Spain) This is a great holiday hotel that I have stayed in many times before. This is a return from when I last went in May 2022. The hotel itself has both an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, a small golf area, a room for playing poole and a bar. This...

Bus Lists On The Web (buslistsontheweb.co.uk) now shows a lot more of the Yutong E12 vehicle details. The information I have collected in the below table. Fleet Number Registration 73002 YH24LZT 73003 YH24LZU 73004 YH24LZV 73005 YH24LZW 73006 YH24LZX 73007 YH24MBF 73008...

This evening I uploaded a train video (in the ‘shorts’ form), something I haven’t done since around Summer 2022. The short is a 40 second video containing a Class 376 and a 12 car class 465 train.

Return flight from Malaga to London - Saturday 13th of April, 2024 This is a flight report I keep forgetting to post on here, so I shall do that now. This flight did not go well at the start, but it all worked out at the end. I will explain this from the first sighting of the plane. The...

Haven’t there been some standard hybrid buses in London that have been withdrawn already because of fires?

The most recent Flickr photo I can find of both ones are dated (in terms of when the photo was taken) are for 1946, the 11th of May 2023 (before your post was made), and for 1947, the 13th of March 2024 (after your post was made), indicating that they may still have 1947, unsure on 1946. The...
