Day 209 (v 10.0) - at rest

Fleet No 3326. A weekend working on the Bus Stop Timetables for the new season of the Island Coaster (which missed all last Summer) gave me the chance to drive this last remaining Dart in the Southern Vectis Fleet around a good proportion of the Island; its a dirty job but somebody had to do it and the Island makes a great backdrop.

This location is Southdown on the Military Road. I love that house.

There are 2 types of white pointer in Australia.

 

The great white shark also known as a white pointer, is arguably the world's largest known extant macropredatory fish and is known to prey upon a variety of other marine animals including fish, pinnipeds, and seabirds, and is ranked first in a list of number of recorded attacks on humans.

 

On the PLUS side, humans are not appropriate prey because shark's digestion is too slow to cope with the human's high ratio of bone to muscle and fat.

 

Accordingly, in most recorded attacks, great whites broke off contact after the first bite. Fatalities are usually caused by blood loss from the initial limb injury rather than from critical organ loss or from whole consumption.

 

My state, Queensland has the unenviable record for the highest number of recorded shark attacks with a total of 301, 89 fatal,186 injured and 26 no injuries. Oh joy.

 

The other type of white pointer is a lot more common, and while it is not normally lethal, there may be serious repercussions if it is unexpectardly encountered in the wild.

 

WARNING - If you are easily disturbed by the condition of wildlife stranded on rocks, do NOT look at the shot below of the other type of white pointer. You have been warned.

Fort Point is located at the southern side of the Golden Gate at the entrance to San Francisco Bay. This fort was completed just before the American Civil War, to defend San Francisco Bay against hostile warships. The fort is now protected as Fort Point National Historic Site, a United States National Historic Site administered by the National Park Service as a unit of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. ~ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Point,_San_Francisco

Here are Pointer 1 SLF Enviro Darts 25 (P709 VEX) and 28 (P712 VEX) showing pre and post refurb E-Darts. For now, 28 is staying as a park and ride bus, while 25, in its rather shabby state, has had its P&R branding removed as it will be filling in across the wider RB network, following increased demand for single deckers on the Counties Connect routes.

 

At some point during the de-branding process, 25's front number plate disappeared. And the wipers you'll just have to imagine until I get chance to give it a proper repaint.

The scene at Hastings Station has changed immeasurably since the 1980s. East Kent Transbus Dart SLF/Pointer 34442 was new to United Counties in December 2003 and retains its "yellow dot" destination display. It is working route 26A to Conquest Hospital as it leaves the station approach on 1 September 2022.

Millsy keeps an eye out on those still in the ocean (he spent a whole 8 seconds in the water! :-) ).

 

A wet and wooly Sunday led to the cancellation of the Blue Hole Club swim, but a few hardy souls braved the ocean anyway.

An all-ADL Dart SLF/Pointer 2 bus that I photographed plodding southbound on the M6 on a Sunday lunchtime. Presumably, it was making its way back to base after rail replacement duties in the north west.

 

Similar NK56 EPA had passed a few minutes earlier.

A comprehensive signpost for Newcastle’s various attractions and a fruit stall are overlooked by Grey’s Monument (1838). It commemorates Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey (1764-1845), who as Prime Minister between 1830-34 was instrumental in achieving the Great Reform Act of 1832 that brought about much-needed parliamentary reform. The monument stands 133 ft tall.
