Arriva Cymru Dennis Dart SLF / Plaxton Pointer 2 2328 is seen passing through Chester in March 2009.
This had been delivered new to the Independent Williams of Deiniolen in 1998.
P718RYL was a Dennis Dart SLF / Plaxton Pointer B36F purchased new by London General as their LDP18 in November 1996.

Arriva Kent & Surrey 1606 (GN04 UCW) heads to turn around via Locke Way while on route 437 duties, while sister 1607 (GN04 UCX) approaches the stand with a 28 to Guildford.
Shortly afterwards, both buses chased each other down the High Street having set off for their respective destinations.
From 15th December 2014, route 437 will be diverted inbound to Woking via Maybury Arch and Maybury Road, to terminate at the station (thus approaching from the background, rather than the way 1606 is facing).
Oriental Road and the Community Hospital will no longer be served towards Woking, but will still be so on outbound journeys.
Pedantry corner:
Like 1629 and 1630, I note that 1606 has had its back end tweaked, and no longer carries the yellow stripe around the back (though still does the front - as does 1607).
The Broadway, Woking, Surrey.
