First T825SFS (60067) is a Scania L94UB with Wright Axcess Floline bodywork. Seen at the White Rose Centre, T825SFS was new to Yorkshire Rider as their 8195.
In 1999 FirstPMT received a further 3 Scanias with Wright Axcess bodies. Numbered 830-832, 831 & 832 were soon despatched to First Manchester, but not before the batch had received national fleet numbers 60072-4. 830 remained local and eventually, its two sisters were returned to the Potteries. Upon their return, they received Unilink route branding for service 25 Hanley-Stoke-Newcastle-Keele University, and 60074 is seen shortly after return, in Hanley on 26 September 07.
60074 had rather a sad start to life. Whilst still relatively new it was involved in quite a severe accident on service 20, near Crewe, and had to be returned to Wright for a front end rebuild.

Today parked at the depot is one of the two Wright Ultralows still operated by Stephensons, this will see increased use from next year when it replaces J6S0E Endurance . The other Ultalow LUI9598 Is now parked at the Kirbymoorside depot presumably for school work and local town services but it may well move back to the Tholthorpe depot to replace J6SOE & J18BUS (sees no use)

This Rock Ferry based Wright Axcess Floline bodied Scania L94UB, is registered X265 USH with the fleet number 28539. Operating the 1 between Chester and Liverpool. 28539's chasis is still found in newer buses. To be precise; Stagecoach In Wirral's Wright Solar's use the Scania L94UB chasis. My title 'Scania Upgrade' is so called as 28539 recently had a new LED destination board fitted.

A couple of the more elderly buses in the First West Yorkshire fleet have had this silver treatment to the front grille which I'm not sure suits them. First Leeds 61070, a Wright Axcess Ultralow bodied Scania L113CRL, is seen here passing by the Corn Exchange while operating route 64A to Aberford.

Much travelled YJ58FFB is now with Geldard's, seen here in Pudsey with First L94UB/Floline V140ESC waiting its turn to use the stop. See tags.
Since the revision to run between Brooklands and Staines only, route 51 has been run by First Berkshire's Bracknell depot, rather than Slough.
This means appearances by these Scania L94UB/Wright Axcess-Flolines, which make up the bulk of Bracknell's single deckers.
Previously, this type wouldn't be seen on the route, as Slough depot don't have any (although I did find out that on 6th November 2012, Bracknell's 60164 and 65623 were loaned to Slough for one day, and did go on the 51).
Just in case that wasn't enough to confirm Bracknell operation, the bus seen here, 65624 (T824 JBL) wears an all over advert for John Nike Leisure Centre in Bracknell. Another depot, another wrapped bus - First Berkshire do like their all over adverts!
