[NEW] Stagecoach in Hull 19112 - MX07 HMU & 19054 - MX56 FSD
Normally, I tend to avoid getting photos of buses heading into Kingswood Retail Park, but come on - I couldn't resist this! Two ex-Manchester buses in one go - that'll make some easy work for the spreadsheet! And it's a nice little action shot, too! Moving on from that, two particular features I would like to mention - on 19112, you may just be able to make out where it's Manchester worker bee vinyl, added across the Stagecoach Greater Manchester bus fleet in tribute to those who tragically lost their lives in the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing, had once been placed on the front panel, while 19054 still carries the advertising hoardings of the event that, arguably, doomed us all into this mess, the Cheltenham Festival. Make of that what you will, of course.
A very lucky shot that required a fast change of lens, newly-cascaded Stagecoach in Hull 19112, a 2007 ADL Enviro 400 new to Stagecoach in Manchester and latterly based at Middleton depot before recently being transferred to Hull, passes alongside its recently-cascaded sister 19054, a 2006 example also new to Stagecoach in Manchester that up until recently was operating for Merseyside & South Lancashire - still retaining its yellow CCTV stickers from that operation. Both here at Kingswood Retail Park, they are working the 5 and 11 respectively for Hull Interchange.
