Sanders 408 1617hrs Norwich to Sheringham 010416
Another recent addition to the Sanders service bus fleet is Wright Pulsar bodied VDL SB200 type number 408 and in this shot we see it passing along Runton Road in Cromer whilst working the above journey on service 44A. Sanders now operate nine examples of this type of vehicle and they are numbered from 400 upwards. Originally delivered new to Arriva Bus & Coach Sales, YJ60 GDX subsequently spent time in Malta as BUS 314 as well as going on loan to a number of operators; including Shetland based John Leask & Son of Lerwick. However, I believe it was on loan to the Arriva Midlands fleet immediately prior to joining Sanders. The cordoned off section of the cliff top Runton Road car park visible behind 408 has been used by contractors repairing Cromer’s sea front and sea defences, which were severely damaged during the tidal surge of December 2013.
Sanders introduced new timetables from 27th March 2016. From Monday to Friday the number of service 44A/X44 journeys between Sheringham and Norwich is increased from 24 to 26 each way. Of these 7 journeys to and 8 journeys from Norwich now follow the former Konectbus service 2 route by omitting Suffield Park and Aylsham. All Monday to Friday journeys have been retimed by a few minutes and it appears Woodland Rise West at Sheringham is no longer served.
