The clouds have been so lovely these past few days....tonight I headed to my favourite spot for a walk and a little soothing photography.
This photo just does not do justice to how beautiful the hills looked lit up by the sunrays

I went to Leatherhead in the hope of seeing all three workings on the 479. In the end, the 489's no-show meant I didn't. I got to Guildford in time to see the 1630 and 1730 departures, and should have seen the 1750 arrival.
Usually, the 1750 does turn up, as there's a handful of people on it, but unless it broke down, it didn't bother yesterday. Perhaps the dire weather had put passengers off.
I'm assuming it went home early.
Since the last time I saw the 479s, the Southern Transit deckers have gone back home (two survied the ordeal, two came off less well).
There's now more Volvo B10Ms on loan from Edward Thomas to cover the route. For some reason I can't fathom, Edward Thomas cover over the destination boxes on most of their vehicles. This is despite the fact they do operate quite a lot of publicly registered school routes, which should show full details.
Anyway - the end result is that the 479 is currently using 100% paper blinds, and normal manual blinds have been wiped from existence in Guildford.
This is Edward Thomas M615 APN - also ex-Stagecoach, but not so locally.
Here it is on the 1730 ex-Guildford, running up Leapale Road.
Leapale Road, Guildford, Surrey.
The sun setting through the clouds caused this awesome display of sunrays (also known as Crepuscular rays) at Les Bourdaines, Seignosse, France. September 2005
Sunray Travel Olympian N431 FKK, on loan from Southern Transit and still in Uno livery, loads for Epsom on a through 479 journey from Guildford.

Lovely sunrays emerge from the clouds on this Saltillo evening. This shot doesn't show much of the city, but it shows the mountains that surround it and are visible from all over the city.
Saltillo is a city of about 700,000 inhabitants in th northeast of Mexico. It is a major automotive manufacturing center.
