I added Farte. The responsibility was handed back from VKT to Telemark on 1 July 2015, but at that time they didn`t have any proper name. I first read about the name "Farte" in September last year, but the website wasn`t officially launched until November. These buses with Farte colour scheme were put into use on 28 June this year. But I`m not really sure if other local routes in Telemark should be put as Farte, and since when? (The withdrawal from VKT or the launch of the website.) It is neither known if buses in the rest of Telemark will get this colour when the other operators will have to re-bid for their contracts in 2-4 years time.
I saw some buses with this Farte labels in this area, but I had an occasion to take only this photo.. Scania in this painting looks beautiful for me.
Yes, all new buses in the Grenland area have this now. I really like that yellow colour, but the name is never going to be my favourite. Last Monday I visited Skien and Porsgrunn and the main garage and took quite a lot of photos, but it will take some time to get them through Lightroom, I guess. In addition to the Citywides, there are a whole bunch of Iveco Crossway LE, some Crossway Line and some Indcar Mobi. Also there are half a dozen Volvo 8700LEs from the previous contract.
@Øyvind: I hope you will find some time to share some of your photos of those vehicles
@Patryk: Ano, wreszcie w naturalnym środowisku! :P
Of course I will, and hopefully before September. But first I will do the Citywides in Tønsberg. Have just started on them now.
