History

373 was delivered to London United in 2005 for the 267. She was bought by Thamesdown Transport 2013, having the rear door removed and new seating moquette applied by Hants & Dorset Trim. When GoAhead bought Thamesdown under the Go South Coast brand, she was the last omnidekka to be painted into Swindon Decker livery and named "Earl of Plymouth". In 2020 she was given an advertising livery for the BBC four show "This country", which was removed in May 2023 with only one side being given the full Swindon's Bus Company logo, with the otherside having a restless logo applied giving her left side a unique appearance to the other Omnidekka's. In 2025 she was withdrawn and placed in events reserve with the arrival of the Ex-Salisbury Reds Enviro400s, and was last run at the Isle of Wight festival at the time of writing. We intend to purchase her for preservation in mid to late 2026.
