| This photo is not what it seems! Ford Transit van EA63VUE is in Go-Ahead red livery, with a Buses roundel and SW garage code. However, it was actually photographed in Clacton (on 27th July 2020), attending to a plain blue Dennis Dart SLF bus belonging to Hedingham. Hedingham was a long-standing independent operator running services in north Essex and Suffolk. It was eventually taken over by Go-Ahead in 2012. The Ford van had presumably been transferred here in 2019 following replacement by new EF19HFR and had yet to have its livery updated. I thought the bus had a London connection too, the SN03xxx registration and 285 fleetnumber both making me think of Metrobus. However, it had in fact been new to Solent Blue Line/Bluestar, or whatever the Hampshire operations were being called in 2003! |
