Brylaine YJ57 EGY
For a few days in a row there was a 'peak time' around 17:20 to 17:40 where several things would happen in a short space of time, with Stagecoach workings from other depots showing up (56, 100, 103, 107 and a NIS Gainsborough decker), the arrival of a Brylaine IC5, an Andrew's rail replacement, a JBT rail replacement, a couple of PC Coaches movements including one of their coaches over the flyover, two eastbound intermodal trains, an eastbound EMR unit plus all the variety that the standard Stagecoach Lincoln buses provided. I went out to get as much as I could each day, but with so much going on I never managed to get everything! Still, for this upload I bring you what I caught amidst Lincoln's public transport 'rush hour'.
An afternoon of spotting around Lincoln bus station isn't complete without an InterConnect 5 and here is one of those, with YJ57 EGY which has been a regular performer on this route of late. Oddly, despite being a later model of Tempo with the cooling grille on the nearside it has the same front axle as the early model, even though I've seen 07 registered ones that have the late-model axle. This was new to Konect Bus, so did they specify all their Tempos with the old-style front axle? It must annoy the Brylaine engineering staff to deal with early and late model Tempos, plus a mix of both!
