Coach Services MX05 OUE 0930hrs Bradenham to Dereham 300819

After taking over operation from week commencing Monday 1st April 2019, Thetford based Coach Services brief tenure of former Konectbus Tuesday & Friday services 17 West Bradenham - Dereham and Friday only service 18 Dereham Circular via Foulsham came to an end today, Friday 30th August 2019. It is suggested that as from next week, operation of these two services will pass to the ever expanding West Norfolk Community Transport. However, as of today there appears to be no confirmation/information to support this suggestion on the WNCT “Go to town” website, although both services have been removed from the Traveline site.

 

In bright morning sunshine, former Enterprise of Peterborough Optare Solo type - MX05 OUE is captured at Woodrising whilst passing the Village Sign timing point with the last Coach Services operated inbound service 17 journey. Having reached this point from Bradenham by way of Shipdham and Cranworth it will continue to Dereham via Hingham, Hardingham, Reymerston, Garvestone, Whinburgh and Yaxham.

 

Erected in 1967, the village sign depicts St Nicholas Church - which is down the lane to the right as we look - and two figures - Lord of The Manor Sir Richard Southwell and his wife.
