Volvo B7RLE 30409 Reg. No. YJ07 OZV with Wright Eclipse Urban bodywork was off the road for approximately one week earlier this month and has now 'disappeared' from Bustimes website. I assume this means it has finally been withdrawn after just over 19 years service; can anyone confirm please.

But sister Volvo B7RLE 30410 Reg. No. YJ07 OZW with Wright Eclipse Urban bodywork is still soldiering on and it was working the 13-30 303 service from Worcester to Kidderminster today, Wednesday 15 July 2026, where it is seen travelling along Grange Avenue.

After a week dominated by Wright Streetlite DF vehicles on the 303, it all changed yesterday, Saturday 22 August 2026, when the two oldest front line buses in the fleet provided 'vintage' 19 year old Volvo B7RLE travel throughout the day. Plaxton Centro bodied 30001 (WX07 UOB) is seen working the 15-30 service from Crowngate to Kidderminster and Wright Eclipse Urban bodied 30410 (YJ07 OZW) the 16-35 journey back to Kidderminster along Grange Avenue.
