Candimane's Bus Photo Collection


Araleya

Recommended Posts

Hello all,

A lot of you probably don't know this, but I'm a huge bus enthusiast, and have been for years.
I've been taking pictures for many years now of my local fleet and I decided I wanted to show/ share some of my photos.

What I will post here are our regular buses on the correct line/ route, Silver spare replacements( Older colour replacements Green and white), and the School runs ( or other different colours on a different route)

I will start off with some older photos, most of which are retired from our fleet.



This was a lucky shot I got one day of 2 Scania Omnidekka's 670 and 751 both N94UD Chassis (Taken on 20/6/2019) ( both retired)

This is a slightly younger reg model of the Omnidekka, 945 N270UD Chassis (taken on 18/7/2019) (retired)

And one of our Bio gas buses 431 Scania Enviro400CBGCity N280UD chassis (take on 30/7/2019)

For today, I have a bit more of a variety of different models.

 This is one of our Enviro 400's, 605 with a N230UD Chassis (taken on 12/9/2019)

Then we also have an Alexander Dennis Enviro 200, 388 (taken 18/9/2019) (this was just a random replacement I caught)

And Finally our old Scania Omnicity, 298 (formally 516) one of many we used to have, before they were replaced with new buses over time. (taken on 19/9/2019) (retired)

Today I have 5 to show off,

This is one of our Solo SR's 365, this is how it used to look before it went for repaint into a newer style of livery (taken 20/9/2019)
20190920_154548.jpg

Here we have another Scania Omnidekka with a N270UD chassis (taken on 24/9/2019) (in current silver livery) (retired)
20190924_072952.jpg

And this is another Scania Omnidekka (N270UD Chassis), slightly younger than the one above, this was part of a route called the "Citylink1" before it was turned into silver, Some of the buses on the "Citylink 1" route became the 49 route, which I will post a picture of one at a later date. (In older silver livery- retired)

This is another one of our Solo SR's 354, its now no longer in green as it is a silver spare (spare fleet) (taken on 25/9/2019) 
20190925_161512.jpg

And finally a picture fresh from today, 995 on the 59 route (N230UD Chassis), the last one I needed of the collection, (991-997 on 56-59 routes) Still in service till summer most likely (taken 1/4/2022)

Today I have one of our old Solo SR's, 237 and 238 were the last two kept in the fleet until 2020. All the old Solo SR's were replaced with the newer ones.

But here is 237 (on a 40 route my camera didn't catch the destination board) (taken 23/9/2019) (retired)

20190923_074840.jpg

 

And secondly I have another old Scania Onmidekka once again a N270UD Chassis fleet number 971 (taken on 23/9/2019) this was origionally a branded 48 route bus but was then used as an spare due to it being an advertisement bus. (retired)

Guest - Pink Ribbon -

Here's some of our busses around Plymouth (These are not my images)

spacer.png

 

Our tour bus around the Hoe and Barbican v

This is a special retired bus where it takes tours around Plymouth on special occasions, mostly weddings now though. V

spacer.png

 

This was our older style busses, the price of a Dayrider is now £5 rather than the advertised price lol

spacer.png

 

And finally what I like to call our "Turd bus" as its gas powered ?

 

spacer.png

 

There's many more style busses what do specific routes like the Blue flash, Yellow Flash, Green Flash etc but they don't tend to stick to their routes now if they are short of busses lol Plus a couple years back the company bought busses from Southampton "BlueStar" busses to revamp.

@- Pink Ribbon -I am pretty sure i have seen some of Plymouth buses before, would be a few years ago now. Interesting Pictures though. Some Nice Enviro 400's.

For today I have:
One of our Enviro 400's ,614 on the 45 route (Chassis N230UD) (taken on 14/2/2020)
20200214_154021.jpg

I also have a very special picture, one of our Scania Omnidekka's. 932 was the last Omnidekka ever built for Nottingham, before optare stopped building them in 2011 I believe. From 2011 on wards we brought the Enviro 400's. Here it is on route 4 the Uni route.(Chassis N230UD) (taken 24/2/2020)
