More New Buses!
It’s unheard of in the History of ARRIVA The Shires for the business to spend so much money on new buses (Not that I’m complaining!)…. I have never seen so many new vehicles arrive at a garage in such a short space of time.
These first two pictures show the buses awaiting Delivery at the manufactures site in Harlow awaiting delivery, Kindly provided by Ian Rivett. and below the first five arriving at our depot.
Topical Advertising
Got this sent to me in an email the other day.. It’s the most topical bus advertising I’ve ever seen

And so it Begins….
Looks like the ARRIVA’tising of MK Metro might have just started today.
One of our buses, 3528, went away painted yellow a few weeks ago and has come back today in ARRIVA livery.
Why oh why oh why
I can’t believe we are getting rid of this…..
for this “thing”….
I really do wonder how we get to these decisions, No doubt made by somebody so far removed from the depot that they’ve probably not seen a bus LOL
Is this the start of the change?
Two of the Five hire buses arrived at the depot this week for some new cross town route we’re starting in a week..
Notice the company name on the side!…No sign of MK METRO… Is this the start of us being “Arriva’tised”?!
