My little Bus spottiing trip


Good Evening readers welcome to my newest blog post. I've been on my travels again for the first time in ages this time I was going to Lowestoft for a few days to see my Nan and Grandad. Well I didn't really spend that much time with them because I decided to go and see the Buses at the Bus Station which is really close to where they live.

I was really impressed with what I saw whilst I was there Bus wise a range of makes. The main operator there is First Eastern Counties. Whilst I was there I decided to go on some Buses as well. I went on a really bad Gemini on the X1 which was 37578 (AU58 EDJ) and a really nice President on the 1A which was 32209 (LT52 WTP). Lets go on to the pictures I took whilst I was there.

Been on this a few times but here is Enviro400 33819 YX63 LKJ on the X1

 I also managed to photograph one of the B7TL ALX400s in a special brown and cream livery.

Another shot this time it was on the 99 shame the blind wasn't showing on this when I took the photo

These are just 2 of the opeartors that run services in Lowestoft the third is Anglian Bus. First is the main operator there because they have the most services that run in Lowestoft the others have less services. I was also shocked that the wing mirror on the drivers side is really big.
