First York 'Rider York' 69374 - YJ08 XYO

            Yorkshire Rider! Or shall I say, Rider York? Taken from the top of Clifford's Tower (well, by the door, I didn't go in because the entry prices weren't cheap), First York's 69374, a 2008 Wright Eclipse Urban previously branded in silver for the Park & Ride, wears a heritage livery paying tribute to a bygone subdivision of the Yorkshire Rider group, Rider York. I have to say, the Yorkshire Rider livery is among my favourites, and it was great to finally see this in the flesh and get a proper photo of it. And from a unique angle, too! Shame about the streetlight.

Funnily enough for a P&R vehicle, 69374 passes by a First York Park & Ride 11112, a 2009 Mercedes-Benz Citaro G, making a stop along its own Park and Ride route. These unique vehicles, all I ever think about whenever I think of York's buses - aside from the also soon-to-be-replaced Urbans such as these - are said to be soon replaced by Optare Metrodecker EV's in October. It will be very sad to see these icons of my childhood go.
