Lincolnshire Bus Stop
Stagecoach East Midlands 16911 FX54AOA 23/3/19
In October 2018 a repaint of the former Lincolnshire RoadCar Volvo B7TL Vyking bodied fleet, allocated to Skegness depot began. This example is identifiable as having been painted at Hull depot because of the characteristic red fleet numbers applied on the sides of the vehicles there.
The colours are those of the revised InterConnect branding and can also be seen on sister vehicles 16913 & 16915. The logo and lettering - "connecting people with places InterConnect" has not been reapplied to date, (April 2019) on any of the vehicles treated to a repaint in the last six months. These include four Enviro 400 Scanias and three Wright Eclipse Geminis, all of which are based at Skegness. Some have not even received a Stagecoach fleetname, such is the inconsistency! Only one East Lancs Vyking here, numbered 16907 is still to be given a fresh coat of paint at the time of writing.
The location of the photograph is Burgh le Marsh on a less common working for the type from Lincoln.
