Endurance road test of this fine B9 from Leicester. This was the one I drove down on the second day of CAZ movements, however it decided to conk out somewhere on the A6 near Kettering! With a few hours spent on it over the last couple of months getting it back into serviceable condition.
The bus went out in full service this morning (19/04) on the 218/219s Tonbridge circulars. This marks the first B9 in service in Kent! 6200/2/4 are at Northfleet, 6201/5 are at Gillingham.
