22s are back with a vengence!

Driver Roy Binns prepares to depart our Brinwell Road depot with the first 22 departure at 0634 on Monday 10 September with Dart 512 (X512UAT)
Well it was back in April 2001 when the original 22s ran for the last time but on 10 September the number has reappeared with our "Catch22" service operating between Mereside and Cleveleys, along some former sections of the original 22, but with several tweaks. Operating every 30 minutes, the 22 now has its own website (www.catch22bus.co.uk) and a dedicated fleet of low floor Dennis Dart buses.
Ex-Stagecoach London Dennis Dart 162 in full CBNW fleet livery on the 22 - but still awaiting branding for the Catch 22 which will be applied soon.
