 Leaving Reading Stations for Maidenhead during the Reading Blockade of Christmas 2012 is 820 again. The bus is still pink but bereft of route 20/21 branding and was soon in Bluestar blue numbered 1011. |
 Marchwood Motorways had worked as a franchise operator for Solent Blue Line, but followed the company into Go-Ahead ownership. Dating from before that time, this was an unusual acquisition for an independent, 822 (YJ05PXM) was one of a pair of East Lancs bodied VDL DB250LF and joined an earlier DAF based Optare Spectra already in the Marchwood fleet. The bus is seen at SHOWBUS international 2007. |
 The next generation of buses for the Winchester service were Alexander Dennis Enviro400 models, since displayed by stunning City models based on the Enviro400MMC. Seen at the Alton Bus Rally in July 2015 is 1527 (HJ63JHV).
