Nice one mate, keeps coming back from the dead that one as it was reported broken down the other week as well. Considering it's the oldest bus is the GL fleet you'd think they'd cut their losses and just withdraw it.

7638 is withdrawn and stripped for parts. It is to be scrapped.

There was an interburan pulsar 2 on the 68 this afternoon!

Two were - 3055 and 3077. These are a common allocation on this service now (rather than the Commanders, which were a regular allocation) as I see them on there regularly.

7618 was on the 68 today, too. Not a horrific bus, but, in my opinion, its day has dawned.

Nothing unusual, pulsars/pulsars 2's are getting on the 68 regularly these days.

Haven't seen much of the Ikarus Polaris 481's recently . Have they been withdrawn due to arrival of the new Pulsars?
