We're joining with @ShiresBusNews to
create an even larger web of bus info
and fleet movements - if you haven't
already, please drop us a follow over
there - this account will still exist but
won't be used from now.
Thanks for supporting us and we hope
you continue to do so! Ed.
Vale Travel appear to have purchased two ex Translink Volvo B7TL Alexander ALX400s, EEZ2916 and BYZ6521.
This appears to be to aid the increase of school contracts, however I'm not entirely sure.

One of the moments we've dreaded has come; the Red Eagle €3 Darts are being phased out starting with KX05 KFF, the best of the bunch.
Goodbye, old friend 🫡

Red Eagle's most recent fleet additions, ADL Enviro200s 50133/YY15 GDK and 50134/SN15 LRL. Rumour has it there are supposed to be more E200s (😒) will be coming but only time will tell really.

Vale's newest addition, Volvo B9R / Sunsundegui Sideral RJZ 2661/BX11 DGF is seen at their depot in Aylesbury. A younger sister to Sideral CE02 YRX and a welcome new addition to the fleet. We hope to see it out and about sometime!

Marsworth has a very limited number of bus services, only being served on Tuesdays and Sundays by Star Travel's 167 and Vale Travel's newly taken over 50 respectively. Pictured is YX12 AKV today near the Anglers Retreat pub heading back to Aylesbury.
Finally I've gotten round to (mostly) finishing the fleetlists - just doing date registered for Vale, Star and Z&S vehicles soon. The three new additions been a long time in the works, having been started almost a year ago and left - hope they're useful!

Red Eagle's 50134/SN15 LRL has entered service looking rather shoddy, working the PM W2 duty tracking as 50119. Assumedly this was pushed out as nothing else was available, if not then I'd like to see the excuse for having this on the roads...

Updated lists coming soon. Also working on Vale, Star and Z&S - all we need now really is the Vale/Star coaches and Z&S' laid up E200s. If anyone can help you will of course be credited in the fleetlists :)

Fleetlists updated; constant expansion - another 13 vehicles added since December..

Another new addition to Red Eagle's fleet is, as predicted, 8.9M ADL Enviro200 SN15 LRL. This should be followed by more vehicles shortly.
