Londoner Reborn

See here at Reading rail station is Reading Buses 530 (X100RDG) which was formerly Arriva London DW55 (LJ04LEU).

This vehicle, which is a one-off is designed to show how a old vehicle can be rebuilt to look much more modern at a fraction of the cost of buying brand new vehicles. It has gained a brand new interior with high backed seats and wood effect floor, USB sockets, a ‘sofa’ style seat and a table upstairs and also has a Wright Gemini 2 nose fitted as well. It is to be the spare bus for the Woodley routes, which are gaining Wright StreetDecks.

Here is what the vehicle would have looked like more or less
