Artic variety

More bank holiday buses at rest at the La Rochelle depot, this time drawn from the Yelo fleet of articulated buses. Artics form a minority of the La Rochelle fleet and, aside from the busy Illico route and seasonal VeloBus and Park & Ride duties, tend to be used mainly at peak times. There have also been a few second-hand purchases, rare for the fleet but probably reflecting the cost of such vehicles and the limited mileage they cover.

 

Here a selection of Yelo artics rest up for the bank holiday. 354, nearest, is a Heuliez GX427 new in 2012. Next is 333, an Irisbus Agora L new in 2003. 339 and 337, Irisbus Citelis 18s new in 2009 and 2007 respectively, are next. Then 370, a Heuliez GX427BHNS new in 2009, and finally 335, another Agora L new in 2005.
