colourful Norwich and new tempo

Norfolk County Council tendered 6 new park and ride services from various sites around Norwich to the city centre.
601 and the 604 are run by Konect bus services, route 602 & 606 by First and routes 603 & 605 by the council.

Route 601 uses pink VDL [DAF] Wright bodied d/ds
Route 602 uses blue B7L ALX400 buses
Routes 603 &605 use yellow and orange Italian buses
Route 604 uses green Optare Tempo green buses
Route 606 uses violet wright bodies scania single deck buses.

although the colours are different: the motifs are the same. the offside is plain, and the nearside have identical wavey white lines.

here is a selection of them:
Please note that the Optare Tempo is the model that replaces the Execl.

The electonic blinds are a problem: routes 603 605 606 buses have 'blinking' blinds, and shots should be taken at 1/60th to show them.

I show an offside view of a similar '606' bus in the next batch of photos.

Hi Yoram,

Those on 606 should be Volvo B7RLE not Scanias

Do you have more photos of the Geminis? #

yes, you are correct! sorry! and for the geminis, there are 6 of those [32xxx] on route 25, replacing the batch 32480-485 that are now used on route 602,so , do you want me to post a photo of one of those geminis on route 25?

regards

Yoram

Yes please! Oh why don't they put the Geminis directly on 602? Would make a good pair with those with Konect bus!

No need to say sorry btw, they really look very similar#

As per request, here is a volvo B7L with wright body- 10.6m long, one of the huge order that First placed last year.
