Very Nice Indeed! Preserved First Mainline Volvo B7TL ALX 400: WU02 KVV

This one is a great one!
Last Sunday at the time of writing, ‪@AndMoreCentral‬ hosted his Halifax BusDay, in of course, Halifax, West Yorkshire. 11 buses attended, including South Yorkshire Transport Trust sending 2, however, this one was a last minute surprise that only got revealed on the morning of the event!
WU02 KVV, as the first part of the reg would suggest, is a 2002 B7TL. It's been a first machine it's entire life, before being withdrawn at some point in 2020.
SYTT got it not much longer after, and has repainted it into the retro Mainline scheme of yesteryear, and is a regular performer as a "Modern-ish image" vehicle to take to events. I did manage to film this previously at SYTT's open day, however, the bus was full, so I wasn't able to sit downstairs and get footage of a decent quality - I'm glad I've been able to get some now though, as it sounds fantastic!
Enjoy some B7TL thrash through the hills around Halifax!
