January 2018 was a game changer with the delivery of five Zhuhai Granton (China) bodied Alexander Dennis Enviro500 buses. The service has been stepped up to a more useful 15 minutes, and the impressive new deckers not only sport a striking new livery and WiFi, but feature glass roofs to improve the tourist experience. Having recently taken delivery of triaxle Enviro200XLB singledeckers and Elite bodied coaches Ritchies were obviously keen to try the Enviro500, this one is 1129 (LDC955).

The new buses were much in evidence in February 2020, though with COVID looming they were about to be laid up for a long time! This is RT1130 (LED518).
