We mainly had East Lancs Vyking bodied B7TL'S. They got replaced though just after the Covid outbreak with Enviro 400s. We had 12 plate Scania's and the B7's still had more power.
@Chiltern Transport Productions They were at Skegness depot for years we just have 3 Wright bodied b7's now and 2 Wright Urban eclipses now. Some of the East Lancs bodied B7's have gone to Scunthorpe but I am positive they are being withdrawn soon if they haven't already been withdrawn. The old b7's have now been scrapped unfortunately
@@scottwojcik2148 I miss the old east lancs I miss them because they where a very common sight on the 1 and the 59 to Mablethorpe rarely on the 3 becuase usually on the 3 its the open top buses or the odd Gemini 1 in interconnect or beachball maybe an E400 in interconnect the 1 you see open tops B7RLEs Gemini 1s ect the fleet is Skegness and the east midlands have changed a lot in Sheffield however becuase they phased out the Alx400s and replaced them with streetdecks they also have orange liveried E400s at the back of olive Grove depot
I remember this used to be an odd commonality on 1/2s (now X1s and the odd X10) and jesus christ were they actually pretty nippy... or at least this one was...
