Strange sighting in Milton Keynes

[towerman]

Couple of weeks ago saw an Enviro in Milton Keynes on the X5 (Oxford-Cambridge)never seen a DD on this route before,usually Bedford will use one of it's older coaches if one of the dedicated fleet is out of action.

Deckers do and have operated the X5 in the past, but there's only a few deckers at Bedford that have tachographs fitted plus they have to be low height because of a low bridge between Buckingham and Bicester. They are currently looking at replacing the coaches on the X5 so deckers could be an option or Plaxtom Elites.

I've seen pics of Scania Enviro 400's using the route before.
