Nottingham City Transport 333 (06.10.2022)

After the switchover on the blue 39 route from this green 11 branded Solo SR to the blue 40/41/42 branded Solo SR of 341, it was back to base for the green machine, as illustrated here with the bus seen on Lower Parliament Street twice, firstly as it brings in a 39 from Carlton Valley before then heading back out the other way bound for Trent Bridge garage out of service.

Since the green 11 route now needs only three buses during of the day, one of the quartet can easily be found elsewhere when you least expect it, as illustrated here. 333 is seen on Lower Parliament Street with the blind set for the next blue 39 service to Carlton Valley.

Nottingham City Transport 341 (06.10.2022)

Though this blue 40/41/42 branded Solo SR had been on the extra 53B followed on by the extra 3A, a route of perhaps significant importance came in the 39 as it ended up on the route replacing the green 11 branded Solo SR of 333. 341 is seen on Lower Parliament Street with a 39 to Carlton Valley.

After having finished its work on the grey 53 and the extra 3A, this blue 40/41/42 branded Solo SR headed out onto the blue network albeit not what it's usually branded for! 341 is seen on Lower Parliament Street out of service ready to sign onto the blue 39 route... somehow!

Nottingham City Transport 338 (06.10.2022)

A couple of blue 40/41/42 branded Solo SR's ended up on the 39 today, so efforts were made to catch up with them both. 338 is seen on Lower Parliament Street with a 39 to Carlton Valley. In the end, this bus was replaced by the E200 of 395 branded for the route after its work had finished on the 9B and 8 for Bridgford Bus followed on by the extra 54B.

Nottingham City Transport 395 (06.10.2022)

A change from short blue to long blue on this 39 occurred when the 40/41/42 branded Solo SR of 338 was swapped for this 39 branded E200, as illustrated here. 395 is seen on Lower Parliament Street with a 39 to Carlton Valley, the bus having earlier worked the 9B and 8 for Bridgford Bus followed on by the extra 54B.

Nottingham City Transport 395 (06.10.2022)

Under the new timetable for Bridgford Bus, the 9B at 07:45 from Trent Bridge and 8 from Rushcliffe School at 08:12 are now booked to use any available bus, as illustrated here. 395, a blue 39 branded Enviro 200, is seen on Musters Road with the additional 8 to City Loop.
