Darting Through Estates
Red Rose's 50511 (HW54 BTV); an example of the popular Dennis Dart SLF body, but on a Mini Pointer chassis, has gone through a lot of operator changes. It was new to Southern Vectis on the Isle of Wight, however in 2012, it was part of a serious accident. It was repaired by using parts from ex-Metroline DLD203 (LN51 KXJ). In late 2012, it then moved to Damory in Dorset. At some point in 2017, it moved to Buses Excetera in Guildford, before moving to Red Rose quite recently, in around 2019. It is seen here on its' usual route: Red Rose's estate route around Hemel Hempstead, the H10. The H10 is a lovely route that challenges this Dart as it struggles up the hills of Boxmoor. It is seen here starting an H10 after a well-deserved 35 minute break. Taken 13/02/2023.
