Re: 36242 and 35154 working 32S

Something a little different on the 12-30 pm 303 from Worcester Crowngate bus station to Kidderminster in the form of Optare Versa 30969 Reg. No. YJ57 XVX with B37F bodywork, new to Burnley & Pendle as their 260 in February 2008. Strangely, Bustimes website is showing its last time in service as...

Re: 36242 and 35154 working 32S

The last remaining serviceable Volvo double-decker at Worcester, 32644 worked the 32S this morning, a wet and gloomy Tuesday 26 September 2023. This bus must be very near the end of its life at WR and facing withdrawal in the next few weeks?

Re: 36242 and 35154 working 32S

This morning, Friday 22 September 2023, ex Leicester 'Frequent Fourteens' 35168 ventured out on to the 32S for the first time since being transferred to Worcester, though I noted on Bustimes website it was out on service yesterday afternoon on 45's and 144. It still carries a large vinyl 14 on the o...

Re: 36242 and 35154 working 32S

36241 departed for sunny Weston-Super-Mare today, Friday. I didn't expect that news as 36241 photographed in the mist yesterday morning, Friday 15 September 2023, on the 32S along Grange Avenue and, by a stroke of luck, my camera managed to pick up the elusive destination of its final turn in Worce...

Re: 36242 and 35154 working 32S

Thanks Tim ! The photo of 35156 is interesting to me, -- it's showing St.Peters as the destination instead of Bevere -- This afternoon on the bustimes tracker for 35156 it does not show that it went on to do the PM S23, - until you click on the 17.31 working of the 30, - then map, - and this shows ...

Re: 36242 and 35154 working 32S

With the news that 36241 and 36242 are soon to be transferred away from Worcester I managed a shot of 36242 yesterday afternoon Wednesday 13 September 2023 on the return 32S and managed to capture complete destination as the light levels good and 'shutter speed' high. DSCF4732 (2).JPG Then this morn...
