Stagecoach 16944
Waiting around in the wet for some E200 I've been trying to spot for ages also provided the chance to get Gemini 16944, yet another bus spotted in one day that falls into the category of "I haven't seen that in months."
This is one of the instances where the blind alternates to the new exact fare/contactless message instead of scrolling. This makes more sense on the 56 since having the 'connecting for Skegness' always shown under the Horncastle destination is preferable to having it on the scrolling part, where it could easily be missed. The wording is also slightly different, because the static blinds say 'pay exact fare if you can' and the scrolling ones say 'exact fare if you can'. On the back they say 'catch me if you can'*
Surprisingly, this Gemini is looking quite clean and well kept despite the weather and the long journey it has made to get here. Well done Skeggy.
*not true! Only the route number is shown on the back.
