382 (LO67CFK) can be seen turning onto Blagrave Street as it heads for St Mary's Butt's from Kenavon Drive on the 42.
Probably the most problematic vehicle in the Reading Buses fleet, spending more time off road than in service. With the ex-Stagecoach Enviro300SGs due to enter service, the future for 382 is unknown.
2003 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.6 CDI 416
Just after 8AM on Easter Monday at Oulton Park for the opening round of the British GT Championship saw preparations underway for race day activities.
Despite other operators providing medical cover around the circuit perimeter it was still left to the specialist teams to provide medical care for the competitors during the event.
Making it's way out of the pit lane was this older ambulance from the BRSCC heading towards it's first station point of the day.
Personally, I think Oulton Park is the best race circuit in the country with a bit of everything; gradient, sweeping corners and a parkland setting.
Indeed, former British Touring Car Champion and ex-Formula 1 driver Joachim Winkelhock once described the circuit as a 'mini-Nurburgring'. Enough said.

First Kernows Falmouth Coaster open top service had reverted to the back roads for the 2022 season, leaving the otherwise pedestrianised Church Street once again to the OTS operated Town Centre Loop route 60. In a similar spot to where I photographed Firsts open top service in November 2021, OTS' Mercedes-Benz Sprinter V22OTS passes under the bunting that adorns this street.
Got stopped for these pics! The officer thought I was terrorist and took my details down in case I had any priors! No priors for you sorry about that!
Smithfield Ambulance Station..
Called in on my way home to say hi to one of my old three training stations from my time in London Ambulance Service.
We rotated round three stations, Waterloo, Bloomsbury and this one, Smithfield whilst training and post qualification wait to get posted back to the area of London you came from, in my case Wimbledon.
Great memories!
Said hi to a couple crews that came and went whilst I had some lunch at the cafe opposite.
2012 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3.0 CDI 519
One of Merseyside's older POV (Public Order Vehicle) / CCTV vans parked up up in Whitechapel, Liverpool City Centre.
The centre of Liverpool is usually very busy on the last Friday before Christmas, especially in the evening, with late-night Christmas shoppers and revellers getting ready for the traditional Christmas night out.
I got this shot at 8.45PM and the place was unusually quiet. Still, the boys (and girls) in blue were on hand to keep tabs on things.
This particular van is now on borrowed time with Merseyside Police in the process of withdrawing the 2012 batch of Sprinters and replacing them with newer versions.

2003 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.6 CDI 416
Early afternoon on a scorching hot Easter Monday at Oulton Park for the opening round of the British GT Championship saw the usual array of emergency vehicles dotted around the circuit.
Despite other operators providing medical cover around the circuit perimeter it was still left to the specialist teams to provide medical care for the competitors during the event.
Parked up at Lodge corner, was this older ambulance from the BRSCC waiting to go into action if needed.
The red sandstone building in the background is the Grade II*-listed entrance lodge to the original Oulton Estate, the site that the current day circuit is built upon, and dates back to 1775.
Personally, I think Oulton Park is the best race circuit in the country with a bit of everything; gradient, sweeping corners and a parkland setting.
Indeed, former British Touring Car Champion and ex-Formula 1 driver Joachim Winkelhock once described the circuit as a 'mini-Nurburgring'. Enough said.

2002 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1 CDI 311
I was quite pleased to find this one parked up outside Great Yarmouth Police Station.
This mobile CCTV van must surely be the oldest vehicle in the Norfolk fleet, if not one of the oldest serving police vehicles in the country.
Despite being twenty years old it has covered less than 20,000 miles from new.
Since new it has been re-liveried twice (see below) so they obviously have no intention of parting with it in the near future.
Apart from a few minor rust spots that could easily be fixed it looks in remarkably good condition so will probably be around for some time to come.
2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3.0 CDI 519
Basking in the late afternoon sunshine on the coastal road at Great Yarmouth, Norfolk.
Being a bit of an anorak, I still don't know why the battenburg livery has been applied so high up on the newer batch of Sprinters. The older EEAS units never had it and, to my knowledge, neither do any other NHS ambulances.

2011 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1 CDI 516
Looking out of the window to see if the relentless rain had stopped on a miserable Thursday afternoon, I found this parked on my doorstep. Not sure if it was on a shout (no signs of Blues ans Twos) but it sat there for a while before trundling off.
Pictured in February 2012 in West Derby, Liverpool.
Waterloo Bridge
A 2 day trial circular route across Waterloo Bridge and Blackfriars Bridge. From what I saw most journeys had good loadings.

Little Gems.
From a previous visit to the Merry Hill shopping centre, and the only photo I took on that occasion, two small buses belonging to the Rotala group owned Diamond Bus West Midlands operation were found on layover in the bus station.
The Mellor Strata bodied Mercedes Sprinter was new to Diamond in February 2019, whilst the Optare Solo M780SE originated with Nippy Bus of Martock in July 2010.
