Saw a white dart KN52NFE on 272 today. Anyone know anything about this bus?

Yeah, It's an ex London (not sure which company) but it has been sold to Helms via Ensign and Mr Cherry drove it up here on Thursday this week. It's a Transbus dart SLF 8.8 m with an Transbus Pointer body an it will usually see service on 272. I believe this and either Solo's/Enviro200s are being purchased to start to replace their ageing crusaders

Today, This morning I've seen KN52NFE refreshing full white livery at Hooton Station about 9am, running route 272 service.

Yes, they have indeed purchased its sister bus and it is registered KN52 NFD.
122 on the 272. Extremely rare to see a decker on this route.
