Hi all.

Taken this afternoon (17/09/2021) were YMS Travel Enviro 200 V3 YMS and Bayliss Scania N230UD YR61 RSO covering the afternoon journeys on SEK school routes 921 Herne Bay - Spires Academy & Whitstable - Spires Academy at Sturry Rail Station on behalf of Stagecoach during the continued driver shortage and also SEK '400' 15779 on the morning journey on the 922 at St Stephens Road, roundabout, Canterbury on 16/09/2021 which they continue to operate as normal (at least this week).

YMS Travel have been covering afternoon 921 since last week but do not an exact start date.

Thanks

Brian.

Most grateful to Brian for this. Coupled with JFO’s notes, it looks as if Bayliss have 991 (which only runs in the mornings) and afternoon 922.

Does anyone know when morning 922 was taken back in-house? Previous reports had suggested it had been farmed out. (It is meant to be worked by the fourth Enviro300 at Herne Bay.)

Also picking up on JFO’s notes from last weekend, reporting Ensign 116/22 at Ashford, presumably the initial 114/23 have gone back home. But as 116 was originally at Herne Bay, what has replaced that there?

Clarifications would be welcomed!

Bayliss are indeed doing the morning 991 and the afternoon 922, using YR61 RSO, an Alexander bodied Scania Omnicity. I have driven both of these routes this week, as the actual service bus, not as a duplicate.
