Three of the fleet of Mercedes Citaros purchased by First for the BAA Freeflow Heathrow services are seen together in the Slough depot yard in May 2005, along with a First Centrewest Olympian, VDN34106, assigned to Slough for the 335 service. Nearest the camera is ES64021 (BU04EZG), then ES64017/2 (LT52WXP/A), the latter were new as EC2018/2.

Mercedes ES64021 is seen here in service at Heathrow in 2004, one of a pair of Citaros bought to supplement the service that year. Behind is a similarly liveried vehicle with red in place of purple for Carousel's Freeflow Heathrow A40 route from High Wycombe.

Another pair arrived a month after the initial batch and received "03" registrations. Citaro EC2015 (LK03LNE) is seen at Heathrow in 2005 already renumbered ES64018.
