[GB] Blackpool舊車數攝

Blackpool除了著名的電車外，那裡的巴士也有其特別之處，很多其他地方已絕跡的舊車款
仍在服役中……
先來Blackpool Transport的車：

DAF SB220



Optare Metrorider



Blackpool Transport外觀，可見廠內仍有不少Leyland和East Lancs車身Olympian，泊最尾的還有
一部Atlantean：



來往Blackpool與附近城鎮的路線則多數由Stagecoach in Lancashire/Preston經營，用車同樣以
舊車為主，最驚喜是看到這部Leyland車身的高背座椅Olympian：



還有較正路的9.7米Volvo Olympian：



加送新車一部--Optare Versa，用來行走84號線：

Interurban services connecting Blackpool to other towns is actually operated by Stagecoach Lancashire or Stagecoach Lancaster, as Stagecoach Preston only cover some of the ex-Preston Bus services within Preston. This Olympian, 14457 is actually a recent transfer from the Preston Bus fleet, and I have seen this very regularly on the 68 (Preston - Blackpool).

One other thing I should point out is that Blackpool Olympians have East Lancs, ECW and Roe bodyworks Tthey never have a single one with Alexander or Leyland bodywork.

多謝NV58兄指正！
看清楚一點那部42號線的富豪才知原來是Stagecoach in Lancashire的，即是Stagecoach in Preston
只是經營68號線……
原來14557是前Preston Bus的車，我第一眼看到這款車配Stagecoach新色已經覺得有點怪，原來真的
二手車。

原來那批利蘭是East Lancs車身，只是看它們頭幅太像Alexander R，以為是Alexander……
不過這批車中有部分尾燈已改用East Lancs Millenium的組件，用一對圓形LED尾燈，感覺就
好像最近城巴#501改用ALX500的LED尾燈，怪怪的……

No, the 68 is also operated by Stagecoach Lancashire from Preston Frenchwood garage. 14557 got repainted when it was based at Preston Deepdale (the former Preston Bus) garage and hence it got the Stagecoach in Preston logo. Only after that it was transferred across to make appearances on the 68.

That Olympian on the 42, in contrast, should be from Stagecoach Lancaster (from Morecambe garage). I don't know why it has the wrong fleet name on it.

Stagecoach in Lancaster 好似冇高背椅 olym... 可能係岩岩轉廠 / 其他廠支援

16392 is a recent transferred from Carlisle. Prior to that it was based at Preston (which explains why it had the Stagecoach in Lancashire fleet name).
