RE: [buszone] Re: Bus Fire

It does have the look of a Trident with Plaxton bodywork.  It would not be the first Trident to catch fire.

Definitely not a Reading bus – all Reading deckers have full rear destination displays, except grey 818.

 

RH Transport are expecting five Trident / Plaxton Presidents very soon, which the livery and configuration would appear to match.

Is this definitely a Reading Transport vehicle? While it bares some
resemblance to a route 33 Scania, the blue doesn't look far down enough.

I can't help feeling it looks a bit RH Transport-ish, potentially a
Spectra??
