PX59CVB - Main Street, Keswick, Cumbria, March 2013.
Connecting Cumbria.
In March 2013 Stagecoach Cumbria and North Lancashire operated its Workington to Penrith X4/X5 services with Plaxton Profile bodied Volvo B7R coaches carrying transCumbria branding.
These brought a level of comfort to passengers on these long distance journeys. With the low floor age, Gold specification Enviro 300 and 400 buses maintained a degree of comfort on the routes, with their high backed seating and better leg room. The coming of the new national colour scheme has seen these services regularly operated by 'Local bus service' liveried buses, which has meant normal bus seats and legroom, as with the Gold buses now in the local bus livery, there is no effort put in to keep the luxury buses on these longer routes.
