Services 605 & 606
In late 2011, Norfolk County Council made the decision to merge the Postwick P&R (Service 605) with Sprowston P&R (Service 606), to allow Postwick Park & Ride passengers to travel to Anglia Square. Previously, the Postwick Park & Ride's route was direct to Norwich Bus Station from Postwick, while the Sprowston Park & Ride's route saw commuters travel from Sprowston to Norwich Bus Station via Anglia Square and Castle Meadow. The new route combined the two, traveling from Postwick to Sprowston via Norwich Bus Station, Castle Meadow and Anglia Square.
Although the two routes have now combined, Norse still use two different coloured buses. Previously, Postwick P&R buses were red/orange, and Sprowston buses were purple. The buses are still in those colours, but are now branded with 'Postwick - City Centre - Sprowston' above the usual Park & Ride logo.
The buses in the purple livery are PN03ULL (fleet no. 7158), PN03ULU (fleet no. 7162) and PN03UMC (fleet no. 7166). The buses in the orange/red livery are PN03UMA (fleet no. 7165), PN03ULP (fleet no. 7159) and PN03ULR (fleet no. 7160).
PN03ULX used to operate the Postwick Park & Ride service, until it tragically caught fire on Postwick roundabout in May 2011, or 2010? Luckily, nobody was harmed or injured.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“It seems I impregnated Marge
So I do rather feel, by and large,
Some cash should be tendered
For services rendered,
But I can’t quite decide what to charge.”
