East Yorkshire 747 - YX09 BKA
To properly kick off December now, having spent some time staying over at University and eventually run out of things to do, seeing 747 tracking on the bus tracker, I just shrugged my shoulders and went for it. In truth, getting another repeat shot here was drawn by the fact that the last time I photographed this in it's former livery was on the 28th of January 2020 up in Bridlington, meaning that by January, it would have been four years since I photographed 747. And so, I resolved to prevent that. Repainted about two years ago now, 747 has recently transferred to Hull and, in that time, seems to have not only had a side impact which lost the panels wearing the side 'East Yorkshire' logos but also seems to have developed a patchwork effect of faded paint. I think this deserves a touch-up at the paintshops!
Passing by the University of Hull after a recent transfer down from Bridlington, East Yorkshire's 747, a 2009 Volvo B9TL Wright Eclipse Gemini, comes up Cottingham Road on a 105 to Castle Hill Hospital. Note the deep scrape just below the offside fleet number.
