The Kings Ferry National Express fleet is slowly being updated with Levante 3 coaches from the Clarke’s fleet.


BV69 KTC was captured in a very wet Dover on Friday morning.  Unfortunately the weather precluded me from trying to search out whether it was carrying a fleet number.

BV69KTC is 553355 (or 5533) in the Luckett's scheme that was adopted for most of the NX coaching operations.

The announcement only mentions Gillingham depot.  It does not mention Tilmanstone, where the National Express work is based.

BV69KTC was out on the 007 again in Dover this Thursday 26th, and I can confirm that it carries the fleetnumber 5533 on the passenger side, and as for the continued operation of the 007/008/022 Routes, as far as I know the Eythorne depot will remain open.
