GX427BHNS
Yelo 374, one of the Heuliez GX427BHNS artics used on the busy Illico route, pauses to pick up passengers. A Heuliez GX327 rigid, and the impressive clock tower of La Rochelle station, are visible behind.
The GX427BHNS (BHNS standing for 'Bus a Haut Niveau de Service' - High service level bus) is a somewhat blinged-up version of the standard GX427 artic intended for flagship services or Bus Rapid Transit-type schemes. The wheel spats, to give a tram-like appearance, are particularly notable. Yelo have eight of them for this route, delivered between 2009 and 2011.
