Nottingham City Transport 516 (09.04.2019)

Given the Scania OmniCities are now based at Trent Bridge, they can effectively turn up on any midi-bus route, as here illustrates. 516 is seen here in numerous shots as it spends the morning out on Bridgford Bus 9. A bit of extra morning capacity here then! A required working too for me! While this got swapped for a Bridgford Bus branded Optare Solo SR in the form of 356, maybe on another day, one of these bus types will spend the entire day on Bridgford Bus. Now I most certainly DO want it to happen one day, so please let the dream come true! It must be said though that this bus here is expected to be withdrawn from the fleet, so catch it while you can as these buses haven't got long left in service although now 518 has a new fleet number, that bus is expected to be retained! Watch this space on the other two buses in 515 and 516 though as a new future awaits them!
