Details: We do very occasionally get service vehicle fleetlists from the bus companies, although it has to be said that the accuracy of them is very variable! R823CNB was listed by Arriva the Shires as being a 12 seat minibus acquired in 1997. The date is suspect as the vehicle was first registered in February 1998. More fundamentally, the vehicle is evidently a van rather than a minibus, although to be fair it is possible this was a (very neat) mid-life conversion. Anyway, the Ford Transit is allocated fleetnumber 1171 (not carried) and is based at Harlow Garage, where it was photographed on 24th July 2009. I could continue the Arriva-bashing by pointing out the rather rusty condition (the rear was worse) and pondering whether they were 'looking after our buses' at the expense of their SVs... but I won't.
