It has been announced that Bus Vannin's new timetable is to come into effect on May 19th


RE: Bus Vannin - SK15 GZG - 08/06/2013 09:36

A silver long wheelbase StreetLite (fleet number 127 and registered MAN-41-H) has arrived on a two-month loan. This is re-using the registration from Optare-bodied DAF DB250 41 MAN-41-H which was withdrawn early last year

Generally it's the DB250s and Tridents although other vehicle types do appear on these services

Also DAF 10 T-10-MAN has received a partial repaint and has lost its "R" designation

thanks, what does or did the R mean


RE: Bus Vannin - BMN 67M - 06/07/2013 18:07

In general after the recent re-shape of the school services there are no longer any vehicles that are allocated to school services only, as many school journeys are now public routes as well, so because of this there can be any vehicles working 'school' routes. The 'R' supposedly designates Ramsey vehicles, however these appear to mean nothing as most 'R' vehicles are not seen near Ramsey, indeed today at the opposite end of the island I have noted 'R' marked vehicles 203, 206 and 207.

Volvo 162 has now gained an "R" designation.


RE: Bus Vannin - SK15 GZG - 22/08/2013 21:07

A source at Bus Vannin has informed me that a twenty-sixth Citaro has arrived in the form of ex-EvoBus BD62 LPX

It is to be numbered 226 in the Bus Vannin fleet


RE: Bus Vannin - SK15 GZG - 18/09/2013 12:22

I have been told by my source at Bus Vannin that six Citaro LEs (227-232) and six Volvo B9TLs (presumably 171-6) are on order along with two Mercedes-Benz Sprinter minibuses. The Volvos are due in November whilst the Sprinters are due at the end of this month

Credit to Garry Brookes on the fleetlist - 226 has now entered service. Currently no confirmation on the registration at present
