Arriva buses at Houghton Regis - 14 Apr 2023 (P1150029)

Arriva buses at Houghton Regis - 14 Apr 2023 (P1150029)
Friday 14 April 2023 (1140) – Two of the seven buses (the fourth and fifth rides) that I rode on today on my outing to Luton and Dunstable which were seen at Houghton Regis. Both are Wright Eclipse 2 bodied Volvo B7RLEs new in August 2011 operated by Arriva that were working Busway service Z.

Left: I had just alighted from 3894 (KX11 OSF) working the 1128 service from Dunstable to Luton.

Right: I returned to Dunstable on 3892 (KX11 OSD) which was working the 1057 service from Luton to Dunstable.

It would appear to be the normal working routine is the interworking of services A and Z in the pattern of a westbound service A then an eastbound service Z followed by a westbound service Z and an eastbound service A.

Coincidentally both drivers made reference to the photographing of their buses. Whereas the surly driver of 3894 told me that he didn’t like having his photograph taken (and pulled down the sun visor at the time), the far more amenable driver of 3892 was quite the opposite and asked if I thought he looked good for a photograph.
