[ODD] Stagecoach in Hull 19689 - FX60 HFL
The 11 comes down Middlesex Road? Well, that's news to me! Unless this was some important passenger-specific request, then surely, there's no reason why this should be coming down here. Checking on bustimes, this is it's last run, and it has served the entirety of the 11's normal workings. It can't be a mistyped destination, then. And as I understand it, there was nothing out to suggest it was on emergency diversion. How interesting.
Note, also, the two sets of streetlight poles in the background. As I've ran out of things to talk about, a quick personal anecdote here - concrete columns appear to be finally being eradicated from the streets of Hull, and while the stainless steel variety are much better in terms of crash safety, maintenance and not slowly rotting away after 40 years, they were the streetlights I grew up with in this end of Hull all those years ago, and to see them finally go is a sad shame. Strangely, these had somewhat of a character to them. Ah well, the council's better off this way. Best not to get too sentimental over street furniture.
Seen here strangely coming down Middlesex Road while working an 11 is Stagecoach in Hull's recently-repainted 19689, a 2011 ADL Enviro 400.
