For those of us who don't keep a mental record of the registration number of every UK bus, what type of bus is GF09OXF?

 

[mbonwick]

Scania N230UD/ADL E400.

I wonder if Mr Stockley will rename his blog Halfway to Henbury now .

A vehicle actually in use is a MAJOR improvement on their usual delivery!

And is hiring in a bus for a free service a good business model?

If you want to build operational experience, yes. Businesses are often not profitable in early days.

Free to the passengers yes, but the event organisers are likely to have paid for the service

Potentially, but unlikely when the official transport partner was First?

Google may well be my friend but I don't think it unreasonable to expect a brief description of the bus concerned in a message posted here.

A report elsewhere suggests that 2 Oxford Scania/E400s were involved: 207 (GF09 OXF) and 208 (HF09 OXF).
