DSC_0603

            With the return of a particular Enviro200 to Luton depot last week, two vehicles made the move in the opposite direction, becoming new permanent members of the fleet at Grantham.

The two vehicles are short Plaxton Centro bodied VDL SB120's, a first for Grantham depot. I've only driven one so far, which is 602 - and it's seen here in a very unusual location for a big bus - Willow Crescent in Oakham, which is on the route of the service 146 Oakham Hopper - strictly a mini bus route, so either the preserve of Solos or mini Enviro200s.

Not on this day though, as with a shortage of mini buses, a larger vehicle very rarely had to cover - and 602 was that vehicle, seen here whilst working the 1100 journey on the route.

Absolutely fab vehicle to drive, plenty of power and very light and airy from a passenger perspective too - so I'm hoping the other one will be as good when I get behind the wheel of it!
