Lakeside: YX69 NNB, Drenewydd
A very interesting addition that was brand new into the Lakeside fleet in January 2020 is this Alexander-Dennis, Enviro 400MMC. It was purchased to bring some school contracts to DDA spec away from coaches, also with the additional role of been used for rail replacement. One unexpected use in late July 2020 is use on the commercially operated 449 Ellesmere to Oswestry service, usually the domain of Solos or Solo SRs, thought to be used to help with social distancing capacity on some trips due to covid related regulations currently in play.
Double deckers as a rule are not common with Shropshire operators, certainly not brand new and this is the first double decker to be owned and operated by Lakeside so been purchased brand new is impressive.
