Another view of 2631 on the road between Kinninvie and Woodland. If you enjoy scenic bus rides, I urge you to take a ride on the 88, and don't worry about the usual Metrorider, they really are at home on this route

2631 P631FHN is the latest arrival at Bishop depot, presumably on loan, and is shown here on Byerley Road in Shildon, literally round the corner from my house!
