A Christmas outing for the Odiham branch of the Hampshire Jolly Boys took preserved former Stagecoach Fleet Buzz liveried Dennis Dart SLF / Plaxton Pointer 2 33306 AE51VFV on a recreation run of the 72 route from Aldershot to Reading. The run took us through Church Crookham, Fleet, Elvetham Heath, Hartley Wintney, Riseley, Swallowfield and Spencers Wood. On the return journey we diverted onto the former route 30 from Fleet Station into Farnborough before returning to Aldershot. A jolly trip had by all!
With the annual Torbay half marathon taking place on 26th June this year, the usual diversions were in place, with buses routing via Preston Down, Ring Road & Fleet Street.
Pictured heading up Fleet Street we see Rail River Link's Bristol VR, UWV614S, with the daily 100 Torquay-Totnes service. With the fleet's Bristol VRs in their final summer this could well be the final time we see one of their fine machines making their way through Torquay town center.

There was a fleet flyby during the NAS Oceana Airshow 2017. It was so awesome to see that many jets in the sky that day.
Fleet Street is a street in the City of London named after the River Fleet, London's largest underground river. It was the home of British national newspapers until the 1980s. Even though the last major British news office, Reuters, left in 2005, the term Fleet Street continues to be used as a metonym for the British national press.

I always liked this image for what it was...a tack-sharp pan shot of a pair of Hiawatha SD40-2s--but the Kodachrome 64 original was way too muddy and dark to project at a slide show. So with the power of Photoshop I can now play with the tones a bit and even bring up the shadows to give those muddy areas some detail. Yeah, at some point it is more of a photo-illustration than a pure scan of a K64 from nearly 30 years ago. But that running Hiawatha was really moving that fast on the evening of September 10, 1984 when I dialed down the shutter speed to 1/30 of a second on my Pentax ME Super with a 28 mm wide angle to take this one single frame of the 196 and 184 rolling through Kingston, IL.
An unknown 33 heads south on the fast line through Fleet in this 1987 image. Of note are all the angular 1980 vehicles in the car park.
Fleet number 506 was seen on East Fountainbridge at the start of its journey on the Skylink 300 to Edinburgh Airport.
UPDATE Skylink 300 was withdrawn on and from 11 September 2022 due to low passenger numbers.
Rearguard fleet composed of one flagship, two heavy frigates, one missile frigate, one flak frigate, and two salvage craft.
I've been sorting away, but I made a few more ships to accompany my initial three.

After 25 years at its present location, Aldershot Bus Station will close for good at the end of this week. To mark this occasion, the opportunity was taken today (03/05/2023) to recreate a scene that would have occurred around 10 years ago. When Stagecoach took over Fleet Buzz in 2011 they kept the identity for 3 years and repainted a number of their own buses into the distinctive yellow and black livery. One such bus was AE51VFV, now lovingly restored by James Bell. It is seen here in the bus station as it would have been seen on the Route 72 to Reading. Some town shots conclude this afternoon jolly.

At one time it was common to find a pair of Warbonnet painted B40-8W's leaning into a superelevated curve with a high speed intermodal freight in tow. Built for high speed service over the Santa Fe system, these units enjoyed many days as the pride of the fleet. Fast forward 20 years (or so) and you can still find a pair of B40's leaning into a curve, albeit at 10 mph on a shortline in Saskatchewan! Now wouldn't this pair look good in new paint?

The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalen
The fenland parish of Fleet sits in the south Lincolnshire fens just off the busy A17 trunk road and about 8 miles east of the market town of Spalding. At nearly 12 miles long but only 2 miles at it's widest, the settlement filtered northwards as land was reclaimed from this former tidal inlet. Once surpassing Spalding in population and wealth, Fleet was the focus of Templar activities in medieval times with a yearly fair and vigorous market for centuries.
The Grade I listed Anglican church, dating from the late 12th century, is dedicated to St Mary Magdalene. The 120 feet church tower with spire is like many medieval fenland churches and is detached from the nave by 15 feet. The exterior is mainly Decorated in style, with Early English arcades and a Perpendicular west window. According to Cox (1916), the church was restored in 1860, when the chancel was rebuilt, although the canopied sedilia was retained.
