First Eastern Counties 42911 (WX05 RVV) in Lowestoft - 29 Mar 2022 (P1110229)

Tuesday 29 March 2022 (1402) – First Eastern Counties Buses Limited 42911 (WX05 RVV), an Alexander bodied Dennis Dart SLF that was new to First Somerset and Avon in April 2005, seen in Katwijk Way, Lowestoft when working the service 106 from Oulton Broad.

The town of Lowestoft was once twinned with Katwijk aan Zee, The Netherlands which is honoured with the naming of this roadway.

First Eastern Counties is now marketing itself as Coastal Reds in the Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft area using a new livery style that has almost replaced the First Bus corporate style seen here.

(The Coastal Reds name should not be confused with unrelated Lynx Bus in North Norfolk that is registered with Companies House as Coastal Red Limited).
