Stagecoach 18418
I couldn't decide between two photos I had of 18418 pulling out of the bus station so in the end I uploaded them both. So here's an entire third of Gainsborough's ALX400 fleet leaving Lincoln as another third (17719) has just entered.
Most of Gainsborough's deckers are Plaxton Presidents, plus the small batch of purple E400 MMCs that usually turn up on the 100 and 107. The three ALX400s there seem a bit random as they're all from different batches and one is four years older than the other two.
As well as 18418 showing up in Lincoln occasionally on the 100 or 107, 18416 from the same batch also comes here from time to time on the 56 from Skegness. I'm just waiting for the day they both end up in the same place at the same time so I can get a photo of the two buses from the same batch together.
