As I was in the right area again, I thought it was worth resuming the search for the lilac and blue line buses I still wanted photos of. Turns out I did quite well, but before that could begin, red biogas 411 came by with a 44. It begins its journey to Gedling by climbing Queen Street in the centre of Nottingham on 19.2.22

3 more pictures of Y546 UGC showing some of the new decals applied with still others to be completed. The bus has been backed partly into the prep bay to keep it out of the thundery showers being experienced.

From Sunday 9th August 2015 a significant change took place with regards to the routes in and around New Ash Green and Longfield with route 433 (New Ash Green - Bluewater) and route 489 (New Ash Green to Gravesend) being cut back to run 2 hourly. This has meant the three vehicle operation throughout the day on route 423 and 433 has come to an end and all workings now interchange with each other meaning a vehicle can arrive in New Ash Green on route 423 and go out on route 489.

This image, taken with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, focuses on an object named UGC 695, which is located 30 million light-years away within the constellation Cetus (The Sea Monster), also known as The Whale. UGC 695 is a low-surface-brightness (LSB) galaxy. These galaxies are so faint that their brightness is less than the background brightness of Earth’s atmosphere, which makes them tricky to observe. This low brightness is the result of the relatively small number of stars within them — most of the baryonic matter in these galaxies exists in the form of huge clouds of gas and dust. The stars are also distributed over a relatively large area. LSB galaxies, like dwarf galaxies, have a high fraction of dark matter relative to the number of stars they contain. Astronomers still debate about how LSB galaxies formed in the first place.
