Stagecoach 10898
Stagecoach InterConnect liveried Enviro 400 MMC 10898 departing Lincoln bus station for Gainsborough on route 107. I've only ever seen these on the 100 so to see one on the 107 is something a little different - I always associated the 107 with Plaxton President operation but then I haven't seen that many 107s so MMCs may well be the norm and the Plaxtons the exception.
I wonder what Stagecoach's new livery will mean for InterConnect? Perhaps there will be buses in the new livery style but with purple fronts instead of blue? Then again, InterConnect strikes me as a little unusual in that plenty of routes that claim to be IC ones on bustimes.org then run with 'bog standard' beachball liveried vehicles - but since these 67 plate MMCs and the E400s transferred to Skegness are painted in the purple livery, the brand is far from dead. Meanwhile, purple B7TLs are having the IC branding removed but staying in the purple livery - it does seem a little confusing!
