From left to right:
Keighely & District 1809 in the current/old 662 Shuttle livery as looks a bit battered.
The bus to the right of that is after the vehicle is stripped out and getting ready for more work to start the refurb.
The next bus most noticeably has a new front end applied to look like a more up to date eclipse mark 2.
The last bus, 1810 is the finished article. It has usb charging point, new interior, refurb on the engine??, new livery, and registered on private plates. Looks great!

Looking very nice from it's refurbishment at Landore 153327 returns to Canton and is seen passing through Briton Ferry as 5Z27, 11.30 hrs Landore to Canton stock move (Photo By Steve Powell)
Having run down 41 days ago, 158872 returns north with 5E19 Bristol Barton Hill to Neville Hill T&RSMD.
66748 "West Burton 50" heads a ten-car South West Trains 701005 over Ditton Viaduct with 66788 bringing up the rear on Monday 12th April 2021.
The working was GBRf 5Q80 0654 Eastleigh to Widnes Alstom and was the first to bring the new Bombardier Aventra set into the Cheshire complex for electrical traction related work.
A loaded pair of MLA wagons are at the rear, presumably to aid the brake force.
The plan is for ten of the sets to have work undertaken on them at the Alstom plant.
Spent some time refurbing my website, after seeing the quality of some of you guys' sites... would welcome any and all comments on the function prior to sorting out my pictures on it...
With British Airways still in the process of refurbishing their Boeing 777s with just 9 left to be completed (how time flies by!), the flag-carrier will begin the process of refurbishing their next long-haul fleet type... That seems to be the case when British Airways began updating their itineraries for the W23 schedule.
Behind the Boeing 777, the Boeing 787 forms a major part of British Airways long-haul network... Whilst the Boeing 787-10 feature British Airways newest cabins since delivered new, the Boeing 787-8/9 fleet however feature the previous generation interior. That is expected to change as the flag-carrier will begin the process of refurbishing their Boeing 787-8 fleet with the first expected to be retrofitted from mid-2023.
Uploaded onto British Airways reservation system is a new seat map for their Boeing 787-8 fleet with Baltimore/Washington expected to be the first destination to receive the revised cabins from 30th October 2023, followed by Montréal-Pierre Elliot Trudeau. The seating configuration is slightly changed, Club World becomes Club Suites with 31 in total (a reduction of 4 from 35 currently), World Traveller Plus sees a seat increase from 25 to 37, whilst World Traveller is reduced from 154 to 136. Whether they will be fitted with newer in-flight entertainment systems remains to be seen.
2023 will mark 10 years since British Airways took delivery of their first Boeing 787 Dreamliners (I'm just as shocked as you are!) and have been key to the flag-carrier's ongoing expansion, especially to the United States. The new configuration reflects the fact British Airways expects to see further premium traffic on its thinner routes, not at all surprising considering their recent success with Portland being their newest transatlantic route, helped by codeshare agreements with both American Airlines and Alaska Airlines.
Currently, British Airways operates 35 Boeing 787s, which includes 12 Boeing 787-8s, 18 Boeing 787-9s and 5 Boeing 787-10s. British Airways have 7 Boeing 787-10s on-order.
Zulu Bravo Juliet Kilo is one of 12 Boeing 787-8s operated by British Airways, delivered new to the flag-carrier on 13th September 2018 and she is powered by 2 Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 engines.

🚍 : TEH1459 - LK13BHE
TEH1459 seen at the Eastcote Lane/Field End Road roundabout operating route 282 from Mount Vernon Hospital to Ealing Hospital. TEH1459 has only recently moved into Greenford (G) and it seems to have been refurbished however the rear still retains some of the silver grills.

50019 Ramillies awaits departure from Totnes 21-7-80
The Unigate Creamery is in the background with some interesting vehicles in the car park.
I suspect this is a Bristol to Plymouth working.
50019 was refurbished and into traffic on 31-3-80: It did not receive large logo livery until 4-84. As can be seen the plate at the front has been removed and replaced with it's light.
Holy Trinity Church in Rayleigh, Essex is undergoing major refurbishment. See www.parishofrayleigh.org.uk/refurbishment
In 2009, First London introduced a batch of Wright Pulsar Gemini 2 bodied VDL DB300s on the 23/328, 7 years on the contracts for both the 28 and 328 have been retained, the former with existing buses from route 295 and the latter with new hybrids. But, there are enough hybrids to cover the full PVR of route 328 but there are not enough existing buses from the 295 for the 28's contract, so have the WNs been refurbished for the 28?

Refurbished Northern 156428 slows for the Wigan Wallgate stop with the 15.31 Southport - Stalybridge service.
I was here to phot two class 769 Bi-modes that crossed within five minutes but this turned out to be the best shot a few minutes later.
* I have had reliable gen Northern are standing down all 8 of the class but they are still in service this week as I type this.
** This turned out to be totally unreliable Gen as some days all services are in the hands of 769’s!

BR Cravens Class 105 DMU entering the refurbished North Woolwich station, on an overcast day in April 1981, on the ‘Crosstown LinkLine’ service from Camden Road.. The old goods yard on the right had been used as a coal yard, but now appears to be derelict, and the original station building has been boarded up, and the station and line have been severely reduced since the days of steam:

The line was later electrified - with DC third-rail - and linked up with part of the North London line, and operated with ex-SR slam-door EMUs:

The last Class 105 was withdrawn from BR service in 1988, and only one two-car unit and a trailer have survived into preservation.
The station closed when passenger services ended in 2006, and today (2025), the station building and platform still exist, but the platform is overgrown and derelict, although the building has been tidied up externally in recent years.. The trackbed leading to the station - behind the camera - has been taken over by the Elizabeth Line..
The petrol price seen at the ESSO station appears to be £1.40 per gallon, which was expensive, compared to many other parts of the UK...
