622
As ever with the uni buses, I struggle to get them because whenever I'm free to go looking for them is mostly when they're on reduced out-of-term timetables. Just when I thought I'd got another one down, I then checked and found out I'd already seen this 622 in 34 livery last autumn. Here it is calling at the east entrance with a 34C on 25.7.23

Here's a random bit of trivia pertaining to my photos:
The NCT photos only have the fleet number in the title, with no reference to NCT. This is thanks to me being mildly disorganised 10 years ago; when I originally sorted bus photos on my laptop back in 2012/13, I had lots of NCT compared to anything else and therefore sorted them into 'NCT' and 'other operators'.
The same then applied to when I started putting them on Flickr, with NCT being the default (only requiring fleet no. titles) and any other operator being specified. At first I didn't even have albums for the other operators, just one for NCT buses and another for non-NCT buses. Only later did I sort all TrentBarton, Nottingham Community Transport etc into their own albums, steadily followed by other companies as I saw more of them.
The time for going back and changing all the NCT photo titles has long passed, as I have over 4k of the things now! For purposes of uniformity and ease of organisation in the vehicle albums, most new NCT photos still only have the fleet number in the title (or fleet number and route if it's a spare or odd working). Any which do have NCT in the title are mainly group shots featuring other operators.
TL;DR - I didn't think of futureproofing photo organising in 2013, and now it's just like that (except sometimes when it isn't).
A lovely big mess, really.
