Trent Barton 110 (31.05.2018)

A shot taken much earlier in the day with this Mango Smart Travel ADL Enviro 200 MMC and in it, the bus itself in the form of 110 is seen here heading on Meadows Way with The Keyworth to Keyworth.

And what would a shot of of this Mango Smart Travel ADL Enviro 200 MMC be like without one on Melton Road as here, the bus int he form of 110 is seen here on Melton Road itself leaving Mellors Road bus stop behind just after dropping me off while on The Keyworth to Keyworth.

Close up time with this Mango Smart Travel ADL Enviro 200 MMC as the bus itself in the form of 110 is seen here at Nottingham Station bus stop on Carrington Street while on The Keyworth to Keyworth. This was the bus that took me back home from Nottingham Station.
Trent Barton 110 (31.05.2018)

At least this Mango Smart Travel ADL Enviro 200 MMC was out and about I guess, as here illustrates with The Keyworth route being involved in this one. 110 is seen here at Nottingham Station bus stop on Carrington Street at what would very nearly be the end of its Nottingham bound journey on The Keyworth, with the blind already reset ahead of its next journey to Keyworth.
Trent Barton 110 (31.05.2018)

Another day at the office for Mango Smart Travel spare ADL Enviro 200 MMC 110, it seeing use on The Keyworth once again and in this shot, the bus is seen distant on Arkwright Street heading towards the end of its Nottingham bound journey.
Trent Barton 109 (31.05.2018)

And finally, in this shot, we have 109, once more an ADL Enviro 200 MMC type, again like before, seen here on Carrington Street with a Mainline to Bingham.

Next up, in this shot, we have 109 once more, an ADL Enviro 200 MMC type like before, seen here on Carrington Street with a Mainline to Nottingham.

Next up, in this shot, we have 109, an ADL Enviro 200 MMC type, seen here on Carrington Street with a Mainline to Nottingham.
Trent Barton 735 (31.05.2018)

A Mango Smart Travel themed Mainline coming up. First of all, in this shot, we have 735, a Volvo Wright-Eclipse Urban type, seen here presumably arriving at Nottingham Station bus stop on Carrington Street while on a Mainline to Nottingham, the blind before being reset ahead of its next journey to Bingham.
Trent Barton 678 (31.05.2018)

The other red spare in use on The Cotgrave was 678, a Scania Wright-Solar type, seen here in Central Avenue, West Bridgford with The Cotgrave to Cotgrave.
Trent Barton 744 (31.05.2018)

Formerly based at Derby, this red spare Volvo Wright-Eclipse Urban transferred to Nottingham along with red spare Scania Wright-Solar 682 and red spare Volvo Wright-Eclipse Urban 740 with the new X38's in service. Mind you. 740 is now back at Derby but the other two Nottingham based buses as mentioned do stick where they are. so there you go! In this shot here, 744 is seen on Carrington Street as it presumably arrives at Nottingham Station bus stop while on The Cotgrave to Nottingham, the blind most likely already reset ahead of its next journey to Cotgrave.
Trent Barton 744 (31.05.2018)

Two red spares on The Cotgrave were on order once again and one such bus on there was 744, a Volvo Wright-Eclipse Urban type, seen here in Central Avenue, West Bridgford as it presumably arrives at the bus stop while working The Cotgrave to Nottingham. Ignore what the blind says here because it's incorrect!
Nottingham City Transport 354 'Helen Richardson-Walsh' (31.05.2018)

With its full green panel still intact, 354, a Bridgford Bus branded Optare Solo SR, is seen here heading out of service on Carrington Street presumably bound for Trent Bridge depot.
Nottingham City Transport 237 (31.05.2018)

Almost a repeat of the last shot in effect with the pink leftover but Y reg plate Old Optare Solo 237 is seen this time heading from Meadows Way onto Arkwright Street while on a Bridgford Bus 9 service to City Loop.
Nottingham City Transport 237 (31.05.2018)

A big pink leftover here from its old Sweet Aroma advert! Where on earth did that come from!? 237, a Y reg plate Old Optare Solo, displays part of its old advert while on a Bridgford Bud 9 to Wilford Hill, the bus as seen pretty much at Nottingham Station bus stop on Carrington Street.
Nottingham City Transport 237 (31.05.2018)

Recently updated price banner given the fare increase although perhaps in a different shade of turquoise given it being over the old price banner but there you go! 237 displays its updated price banner on the rear, the bus seen leaving Nottingham Station bus stop behind on Carrington Street just after dropping me off while on a 9 to City Loop.
Nottingham City Transport 237 (31.05.2018)

The presumably main spare on Bridgford Bus came in the form of this Y reg plate Old Optare Solo on the 9, so the older bus was main spare on this occasion rather than the newer one but fair enough given the hard work for the older bus in the end! 237 is seen at Central Avenue bus stop on a 9 to City Loop. This was the bus that took me to Nottingham Station.
Nottingham City Transport 375 (31.05.2018)

And heading towards the scene of the bus swap is green spare ADL Enviro 200 375, seen here heading up to Victoria Embankment with a Bridgford Bus 5 service before a bus swap to 359, a Bridgford Bus branded Optare Solo SR, with 359 continuing forward to City Loop and 375 to presumably go to Trent Bridge depot.
Nottingham City Transport 359 (31.05.2018)

After starting on the Bridgford Bus 5, this Bridgford Bus branded Optare Solo SR came back out to play again after being swapped for a green spare ADL Enviro 200 in the form of 375 earlier in the day. In this shot here, 359 waits for 375 at Victoria Embankment ahead of a bus swap before continuing forward on the 5 with a service for City Loop.
Nottingham City Transport 375 (30.05.2018)

A late capture on the Bridgford Bus 5 service this afternoon with this green spare ADL Enviro 200. 375 is seen here arriving at Nottingham Station bus stop on Carrington Street with a 5 to Gamston.
Nottingham Station Trains and Trams (31.05.2018)

I'm not sure how many shots here but a lot for sure here in this one of the trains and trams at Nottingham, today featuring East Midlands Trains (with some 156's on the Liverpool service too), Cross Country, Northern (with two 150's, a 150/1 in the new livery and a 150/2 in the old livery, on the Leeds runs) Nottingham Express Transit and some freight as well, so there you go.
