The Spirit of London - rebuilt!
Back in 2005 when the bombs happened, which involved Waterden Road machine 17758 getting destroyed, Stagecoach needed a replacement. They then sent an order to Alexander Dennis for a Enviro 400, the first bus of it's type. This bus originally came with LED destination displays, but was later changed to manual scroll blinds. In 2011, when Stagecoach brought back ELBG off the Australians, Stagecoach took the chance to refurbish this with new moqqette, handrails and more. Then in October 2012, two 14 year old girls committed arson on the bus following an argument. Stagecoach then decided to spend £50000 restoring it to a nice standard. Today it made it's debut with new features including white blinds. Lets hope it has a nice future at Leyton (T) on Route 55. I hope you enjoyed reading this post.
