 The Jetblack brand differed from Reading's other colour branded routes. Firstly it was not a town service, secondly it was a franchised route. Operated by the Newbury Buses subsidiary between Newbury and Reading, when rebranded Weavaway subsidiary Newbury & District ran the service on behalf of Reading Buses with a new fleet of diesel Enviro400 buses, at the time when the main fleet was taking the hybrid model. Seen near Reading Hospital on the Bath Road when less than two months old is 1202 (SN11BWB). |
 The rear of sister vehicle 1206 (SN11BWF) is seen on the same day at the same location as it heads into Reading.
