Stagecoach swoops finally invade Fleet

One consequence of the Countryliner crisis is that Stagecoach swoops are now in use on Fleet Buzz routes. This is Merc breadvan 40906 (N906 NAP) on Fleet Buzz route 73.

 

The Stagecoach South MD had always been very careful not to allow this to happen before, ensuring repaints happened first and also a Sainsbury's orange Dart and a purple breadvan got transferred. This was to maintain the experiment of running Fleet Buzz as a low cost unit.

 

But the situation with Countryliner has evidently meant this had been broken.

 

How long till a Stagecoach ends up in Reading?!
