@hastingsbc@esccroads@EastSussexCC@sussex_police it is Whitsun week with loads of kids and families and tourists around and people have to walk around town in fear of being rammed down by courier drivers. Install an ANPR camera, you'd make a killing in fines, and deter it. 2/2
@hastingsbc@esccroads@EastSussexCC@sussex_police as I'm sure all of you are keen to find new sources of income/funding I have some suggestions. Whilst observing today I lost track of how many vehicles were in the pedestrianised zone of Hastings (Wellington Place) today 1/2
A few more snaps of @StagecoachSE's @ScaniaUK N250UD/@ADLbus E400MMC in its Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee livery. 15286 YN16WWC was seen posing outside @KandESRailway's Northiam Station, in Great Chart and in Ashford Town Centre on Route 2 with @coastliner711 at the wheel.
Seen on its first day out after being completed, @StagecoachSE@ADLbus E400MMC bodied Scania N250UD 15286 YN16WWC was caught in Collington, and in Hastings this afternoon on routes 99 and 73 wearing a speciel purple and silver livery to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.
Entering service this morning @StagecoachSE@ScaniaUK@ADLbus Enviro 400 MMC 15270 now in a livery to celebrate Her Majesty the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. Photographed at Minster on service 9.
A few snaps from a very enjoyable day out onboard @HastingsDiesels Class 201 'Thumper' 1001 on their Worcester Sauce DEMU Railtour operating from Hastings to Worcester Shrub Hill via Oxford and the Cotswold Line last Saturday.
With the new MMC's having arrived for the Canterbury Park & Ride, @StagecoachSE are in the process of transferring the older ADL E300's to Eastbourne Depot. 27891 SN63KFL, 27920 SN63VTP and 27924 SN63VTW were snapped at Langney Shops and on Seaside Road over the past few weeks.
A few photographs from a trip east to Thanet yesterday. Some of the many snaps taken of @StagecoachSE vehicles included 17529 LX51FON at Ramsgate Harbour on the 69, 34653 GX54DXD at Westwood Cross on the 34 and 26248 YW19VNT and 26359 YX22OHS in Cliftonville on the Thanet Loop.
Photographed heading along Eastbourne Seafront earlier today was @SSBusandCoach No.809 'Jessica' S9EBN operating a @SightseeingEBN tour. This Alexander ALX400 bodied Volvo B7TL was new to Arriva London South as their No.VLA29 LJ53BDO.
A lot in Ashford has changed since 7801 would have visited in the early 90's. The international station for instance, where 7801 is pictured today on the 10 service!
Yesterday I ventured over to Canterbury (from Hastings, by bus) to catch @StagecoachSE's brand new @ADLbus E200MMC's acquired for the Canterbury Park & Ride. The 3 branded buses, 26354 YX22OHL, 26355 YX22OHN and 26356 YX22OHO were snapped around the city centre.
A fine spot in a shop window in Bexhill yesterday was this 1/76 handbuilt model of a Hastings & District Leyland Tiger/Plaxton Paramount. Naturally I had to go and buy it! My next thought was to snap it in the old coach park, where the real coach might have sat some 30 years ago!
A pleasure to take part in the @SSBusandCoach Ukraine Fundraiser Running Day on Sunday. It’s been a few years since a Stagecoach Trident visited Lewes Bus Station. Also got to meet Twitter colleagues from Stagecoach South @stuartchau500 and @TransGirlEm on the Jubilee bus.
