These are some of the Nottingham City Transport buses I saw in Nottingham's Old Market Square on 25.09.2017. These mostly feature spare buses. At the top is new style spare ADL Enviro 200 385, seen on an 8 to Wilford Hill whilst deputising for a 12 plate branded Bridgford Bus Optare Solo SR. Pictured below it is ADL Enviro 400 CBG City spare 427 on a 10 to Ruddington, a route which also had two branded counterparts swapping round. Below that is ADL Enviro 200 376 on an 11 to Lady Bay, while below that is Scania OmniTown 207, also on an 11 to Lady Bay. The reason for the two spares making appearances on the 11 was not only as cover for one branded Green 11 Optare Solo SR Green 11 but also because another branded Green 11 Optare Solo SR made its way onto the 7 for the afternoon, the bottom picture of which features Green 11 Optare Solo SR 334 on the route, in this case to Gamston, after taking over from Bridgford Bus branded Optare Solo SR 359. The second from bottom photo features new style spare Optare Solo SR 344 and it can be seen pictured terminating in while on a 3, the dedicated route for the spare bus itself, so will predominantly be used on there.
