Nottingham City Transport 345 (13.02.2025)

With 342 moving to the 28 from the 61, this one of the other set of 61 plate Solo SR's was brought on to replace it on the sky blue route, as illustrated here. 345 is seen on Milton Street with a 61 to Calverton, the route of which is soon to gain branded identity with the expected Yutong E10's due to take over in the coming weeks or months.

Nottingham City Transport 342 (13.02.2025)

Due to problems with the ex-Bridgford Bus Solo SR on the 29, one of the 61 plates was put on here to help out, as illustrated here. 342 is seen on Milton Street with the blind set for the next 29 to Jubilee Campus.

Nottingham City Transport 354 'Helen Richardson-Walsh' (15.02.2025)

With the 29 not having a fully branded identity, it's a case of it being like how the 30 was prior to the electric upgrade with the full length E200's in silver when they replaced the pink 30 branded Solo SR's except with this route starting out with spares as the mainstay of it. 354 is seen on the approach to Nottingham with a 29 from Jubilee Campus.

Nottingham City Transport 255 (13.02.2025)

The 29 can be one of those routes where something completely random turns up, as illustrated here with green 11 branded Yutong E10 255, it seen on Upper Parliament Street with a service to Jubilee Campus.

Nottingham City Transport 263 (13.02.2025)

It's not always that two green E12's end up on the pink line network but today saw just that with an 11 on the 29 and this Bridgford Bus one on the morning extras for the 30. 263 is seen heading into Nottingham with a 30 from Wollaton.

Nottingham City Transport 211 (13.02.2025)

With rumors of a fourth bus for the 30 on the cards, the spare allocations should eventually be surplus to full requirement as has been the case at present with the pair of E12 spares predominantly filling in the gaps. 211 is seen outside the University of Nottingham with a 30 from Wollaton.

Nottingham City Transport 615 (13.02.2025)

On any day away from Sundays, spares don't always crop up on the 28, more especially diesel ones but one of the diesel E400's just happened to be on the route today, as illustrated here. 615 is seen outside the University of Nottingham with a 28 from Bilbroough.
