I tried searching and I could not find any mention of this on this forum, doing a Google search did not give any clue.
Does anyone know the identity of the Suya Hut ALX400 bus that was parked in Barking Market Place on Saturday 27th May, the registration is S111UYA but all that comes up with DVLA site is that it is Transbus dating from March 2004.
Many thanks
Ian Hardy

not sure which one it is, but to narrow it down, it's stil got the Reading Buses branding on the upper deck windows by the Staircase so it will be one of the ones that went from Stagecoach when RB took over the 7 |

This is 18062/536 (WA04 CPZ) in Reading Buses ownership, but in Stagecoach South West territory as it attended the Devon General Centenary Rally in Newton Abbot in 2019. It was brought down by Robert Williams, the CEO of Reading Buses who was with Stagecoach South West at an earlier stage of his career. 18062 and 18073 were part of a batch that were bought new for route 12 (Newton Abbot-Brixham), one of Stagecoach South Wests's busiest and most lucrative routes. They were displaced by new Scanias in 2011; 18062 transferred to Exeter for further service and was later transferred to Stagecoach South's Aldershot Depot. Reading Buses acquired 18062 and 18703 in April 2018 when it took over the Reading-Fleet section of route 7.  Devon General Centenary Bus Rally & Running Day by Julian Walker, on Flickr |

Thank you for narrowing it down to two possible vehicles, with that information I have searched buslists.uk/ for WA04CSX and this site shows that it is now S111UYA. WA04CPZ is shown as being owned by Transpora.
