Final 4 Weeks For First in Torbay
After First Devon & Cornwall pulled out of running the X80 around 18 months before, the final remaining First operated working in Torbay was the Dartmouth Academy service, which took students from the Torquay, Paignton, Brixham areas to Dartmouth Academy, leaving just after 7am from Torquay & arriving back around 5pm. Sadly however they discontinued running the service from the end of that term (24 July). Tally Ho! taking over the running of the service from the start of the Autumn term (1 September 2015)
Regular bus, Volvo Olympian 34003-K803ORL was having some maintenance carried out on at the start of this week, so Dennis Trident 33173-LR02LYS stood in for a few days. It is pictured here heading along past Livermead with the morning working to Dartmouth.
