Haywards Coaches YX65 ZJN at Barton Mills - 24 Aug 2019 (P1040146)

Saturday 24 August 2019 (1129) – Haywards Coaches of Reading YX65 ZJN, a Plaxton Leopard bodied Volvo B8R new in January 2016 to Weavaway of Newbury seen in queuing traffic at Barton Mills. Haywards and Weavaway are members of the same owning group. A few minutes before sister vehicle YX65 ZJO had passed by.

It was seen queuing to re-join the dual carriageway after using the old section of road to beat some of the queue from Chalk Hill. When the dual carriageway was opened the old road continued to serve as a local relatively quiet road until traffic queues form on the dual carriageway and then it becomes a rat run for traffic to beat those queues (and sometimes the traffic also has to queue as here!).

The stealthy looking black Leopard (or in the cat world does that make it a jaguar or panther??).
