Stagecoach Lincolnshire RoadCar ‘InterConnect’ 16939 - FX06 AOA
DISCLAIMER: Photo was taken from before the open depot gates. At no point did I enter the depot property.
Amazingly, an InterConnect Gemini showed up at Foster Street yesterday! Just when I'd given up all hope in photographing one under Stagecoach ownership, per the tracker yesterday, one had come to, of all places, here! The RoadCar fleet in Skegness has always interested me ever since I really got into spotting in 2018, and its such a shame that I'll never likely get one of these in proper service in this old livery - if at all - so despite half of the bus being totally blocked off, I'm happy to, at least, have this. But it does beg the question... why is it here?
For some reason over here at Foster Street, in among a number of new possibilities that the depot now brings, Stagecoach Lincolnshire RoadCar's 'Interconnect'-liveried 16939, a 2006 Volvo B7TL Wright Eclipse Gemini new to Lincolnshire RoadCar's 'Coastal Connect' service as, very briefly, their 921, is seen here over the pits in the Hull depot. But what could it be here for? I remember this bus being the subject of much attention by one or two of the staff here... could it be either regular maintenance or, dare I say, a repaint?
