Nottingham City Transport 431 (20.10.2025)

Before later appearing on the 35, this bio-gas Scania saw use on the one extra 4 operated by PSG, as illustrated here. 431 is seen approaching Nottingham's City Campus with a 4 from Clifton Campus.

Nottingham City Transport 503 (20.10.2025)

Before a later move to the 60, this bio-gas Scania saw use on the 26, as illustrated here. 503 is seen on King Street with a 26 from Southwell.

Nottingham City Transport 619 (20.10.2025)

Seen on Upper Parliament Street heading out of service to Victoria Retail Park to start the next 24 to Nottingham.

Nottingham City Transport 603 (20.10.2025)

Due to the bio-gas refuelling at Parliament Street, the 44 is having various swaps and re-swaps on various occasions and the Pride E400 saw use on three routes today, including the 44 for a couple of trips. 603 is seen on Lower Parliament Street with a 44 to Gedling.

Nottingham City Transport 613 'Sheku Kanneh Mason' (20.10.2025)

Because of its transfer back to Parliament Street from Trent Bridge, the bus now has its name back too, as illustrated here. 613 is seen on Lower Parliament Street with a 10 to Ruddington, the bus having been sent out onto the route to replace a failed bio-gas Scania. In the end, this bus also saw late use on the 44 after replacing the branded bio-gas Scania of 416.

Nottingham City Transport 629 (20.10.2025)

Another diesel E400 features here as 629 waits at Victoria Centre to form the next 6 to Gamston.

Nottingham City Transport 602 (20.10.2025)

The amount of action of the increased five bus PVR for the 6 hasn't been that bad to say the least with plenty of the diesel E400's seeing use on it. 602 is seen turning into Market Street from Upper Parliament Street with a 6 to Gamston.

Nottingham City Transport 358 (20.10.2025)

After being replaced by 345 on the 53/54, possibly due to some of issue, this grey 53/54 branded Solo SR found itself doing the extras for the 30 and 28 and then the 9B, 8 and 5 extras. 358 is seen on Upper Parliament Street with a 9B to Wilford Hill.

Nottingham City Transport 344 (20.10.2025)

Extra services are bolstered onto the new Bridgford Bus timetable now using any random bus available just like the 40/41/42 and 30 and 28 routes on the two respective slots. 344 is seen at Victoria Centre ready to do a 5 to Edwalton.

Nottingham City Transport 350 (20.10.2025)

Owing to a failed Yutong E10 on this route today, this one of the Solo SR spares, which also did the 61 later on in for the evening period on the booked diesel board, was dispatched onto it to help out for the rest of the day. 350 is seen on Upper Parliament Street with an 11B to Lady Bay, the shortest run possible on the 11 overall, the longest being the Cropwell Bishop extension and the much shorter of the longer routes by quite some distance being the 11C which goes to Holme Pierrepont.

Nottingham City Transport 342 (20.10.2025)

Not many of the Solo SR's were on electric work today but a couple of them made it out onto the 11 though, this one of such being on as a result of the branded Yutong E10 of 254 ending up on extra work for the 30. 342 is seen turning into Market Street from Upper Parliament Street with an 11C to Holme Pierrepont.

Nottingham City Transport 252 (20.10.2025)

Under the new four bus timetable for the 11/11B/11C as a result of an extension from Gamston to Cropwell Bishop, the route now requires an extra spare to help out, supposedly booked to be with one of the E10 spares. 252 is seen on Upper Parliament Street with an 11 to Cropwell Bishop.

Nottingham City Transport 251/211 (20.10.2025)

Yutong replacement time...

211, a Yutong E12 spare, had been out on the 45 but then out came the E10 spare of 251, hence the bus change, the E10 spare which was replaced on the 61 by 279, one of the branded E10's for it, before then. 251 is seen on Upper Parliament Street with a 45 to Victoria Retail Park and Rivendell whilst 211 is seen with the blind set to driver training after having just come off the 45.

Nottingham City Transport 254 (20.10.2025)

Green meets yellow here as green 11 branded Yutong E10 254 turns into South Sherwood Street with the last extra 30 from Wollaton as it meets one of the yellow 70/71 branded variants on a 70/71.

Nottingham City Transport 399 (20.10.2025)

ADL Enviro 200 MMC in the revised spare livery seen back on the streets of Nottingham out of service.

CT4N 1005 (20.10.2025)

The opposite to Versas covering Solo routes features here as ex-Blackpool Solo 1005 waits on Beastmarket Hill to form the next 18a to Wollaton, a route usually operated with Versas.

CT4N 1001 (20.10.2025)

An unusual visitor to Victoria Centre sees 1001, an ex-Go North East Optare Versa, as it waits time prior to working the L14 to Basford. In the end, this bus replaced the Optare Solo of 932 on the L2 and L14 routes after the original smaller bus moved to do work on the 300.

CT4N 1000 (20.10.2025)

The Locallink routes of the L2 and L14 are usually in the hands of Solos but a couple of ex-Go North East Versas were out doing the rounds today, thus providing for a service upgrade. 1000 in the new CT4N Buses livery is seen outside Victoria Centre with an L14 to Bulwell.

Central Connect 228 (10.10.2025)

White Central...

228 in the white version of the Central Connect livery for the newer 25 plate Merc Sprinter fleet is seen on Beastmarket Hill ready to do the next 90 to Fernwood.

Central Connect 215 (07.06.2025)

The standard booking for all 90's is MMC's but pictured here is 215, a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter EVM Cityline, as it waits on Beastmarket Hill to form the next 90 to Fernwood.

Central Connect 326 (07.10.2025)

Due to a fleet shortage today with Central Connect, most of the 92's weren't in operation but this 22 plate MMC was able to run three trips either side of its school work though and as soon as I found out that it was on its first run, I headed down to Broadmarsh to catch up with it. 326 is seen leaving Nottingham with a 92 to Newark.

Central Connect 209 (10.10.2025)

Whilst the Novus Direct examples are now operating out of what was their East Midlands base for some reason, this Central Connect example in silver inherited by Vectare, originally an ex-Arriva Click before then, is the only second-generation Sprinter left based in the East Midlands at present and today saw it on the LCC2, 86 and, luckily for me, the 93 diagrams too! 209 is seen arriving at Broadmarsh Bus Station with a 93 to Grantham.
