Incoming

Just a quickie tonight but a 'new' arrival in Exeter is of some interest. The bus in question is Stagecoach 13601 BIW4977 a Leyland Olympian 'Megabus' which was previously a Hong Kong bus.
Its of interest because these buses are due to operate on the X38 Plymouth - Exeter service. Not sure when, as I expected they will be refurbished and repainted first but they will make the X38 a lot more visible again.
There are a couple of great photos on Chris Martin's Megabus Fotopic page.
Here, Here and here.
Just as I am typing this a message comes through from the driver who brought them down to Exeter
"what a delight to drive down the M4 and M5 - one hell of a beast"
I for one cant wait!
