Tuesday 10 March 1998 (approx. 0801) – The Shires (LDT Limited) 3112 (L312 HPP) seen in Watton-at-Stone when working the 0740 service 390 from Stevenage to Hertford. It was a Northern Counties Paladin bodied Volvo B6-9.9M which still carried the livery introduced by London Country (North West) in 1988. This livery and a yellow and blue scheme that replaced it, would disappear as the Arriva corporate livery was gradually introduced.
