Just spotted an unidentified Volvo BZL double decker being towed down the A22 in Kenley heading towards Purley. I could see some fleet codes on it but couldn’t get a clear view unfortunately. Before anyone speculates it’s a demonstrator heading to Arriva’s South Croydon garage, my first thought was it’s one of the Stagecoach examples heading to Volvo Croydon Not disputing it is probably a Stagecoach vehicle, but where is heading. Does Volvo Croydon perform pre-delivery checks for North London buses? Sure they are normally performed by a North London dealer.

I've seen VWH2396 there before but maintenance is obviously different to PDIs

MEC25 in Edmonton Green Bus Station - I wonder what Go-Ahead is doing with a driver training vehicle in Edmonton Green - perhaps a Fastrack expansion to Edmonton Green and to other exotic destinations?

For instance Earlier today I saw a stagecoach E200 trainer driving through marble arch . They will go anywhere

I just found it quite surprising that a Go-Ahead Citaro happened to be roaming around these parts of London - perhaps it was even more unusual that it was standing at the bus station’s overflow stand for quite a while.

Probably stopped to use the toilet facilities or get something to eat or drink?
