One year after (3): Bath & Bristol

Then it comes to the two cities some boardmates here are familiar with: Bath & Bristol.
Quite a lot new stuff was seen during my revisit to the two cities.

In terms of new buses, there are quite some new Wright B7RLEs for First, as well as
this new Olympus for City Sightseeing:



In terms of operator, there's the Wessex Connect which is nothing new to me though
owing to its publicity here:





This is also a new comer from York:



For Bristol, it's quite surprised to see how many new B9TLs have joined the fleet of First
in the past year, replacing all the NC Olympians on routes like 1 ,48 & 54. Other new buses,
also for First, include these new B7RLEs for the airport services:



Some more bits of Bath & Bristol:















Thanks!

thanks a lot for the pictures! Bristol既8/9原本係2009年尾換做新既B7RLE, 唔知點解2010年7月個陣換番批dart. 唔知師兄有冇影到Wells批新B7RLE (173/376), Wells批新B7RLE真係好正, 跑山一流, 批野比人操到fit晒, 上山好似平路, 只係衰在冇乜窗可以開.

跟番幾張先..

我也有看到173/376這批新車，不過遊完Bath的景點後剛好遇著大雨，沒有拍照。

Bristol這一年似乎真的多了不少新車，今年去只看到90仍用ALX200飛鏢，
其他線的車齡都不過五年。

173/376批新車比人tune過來, 專係用來跑山路, 所以對比起Bristol批新B7RLE, 佢地tune到波波扯到盡先轉波, 搭過就知批野咩野事.

今年成個FSA都好多新車, 唔止Wells同Bristol, Weston-super-Mare都多左好多新車.

其實原本Bristol會係Sheffield個邊入批super pointer dart去replace批舊dart, 不過Lawrence Hill個邊好似好憎批super pointer dart, 之前40513/7/21/5/9去左Lawrence Hill個邊, 不過之後40513/25走左去Bath, 而40521就比人踢番上Sheffield, 而40517/29就去向不明. 而Bath之後都會有架前Arriva既VDL hybrid(LJ07ECE)行P&R.
