This one year old Volgren Optimus, T1595 (598VMH), XQ85LY from April 2020, is unique in the fleet being the only hybrid bus, a Volvo B5RH, seen here on the 375. The CNG powered MAN 18.310, W1463 (099XYX), is another special bus with lettering on its side pronouncing it as the city's 1000th bus. The MAN is following a non-CNG 18.310 on the CityGlider network, T1039 (381LLU) but changed to 941XEK in 2017.

The footbridge on South Bank viewing Victoria Bridge is a great vantage point with the city skyline as a backdrop. Approaching the camera is E2123 (730TPO), now XQ43KH, on the 306. Another 2014 delivery, E2099 (242TPG), now XQ96LY, is about to head over the Bridge on the 345. Whilst E2123 has the white LED blinds it is interesting to note the old segmented route number blind on the rear of E2099. Other buses identifiable, all with CR228L bodies, are Volvo B12BLE triaxle S5094 (838RSH) changed to 926YBO in 2018, sporting a rear ad for Road Dahl in front of E2099. Behind E2123 is another B12BLE triax, W5069 (291RPT), changed since to 547XXE.
