Stagecoach 47029-47039

Stagecoach 47029-47039 are 2003 Optare Solo (M920) buses.

They were originally delivered to Stagecoach in Northants with "Corby Star" livery for services in Corby. 47029-47033 were later repainted into "Connect Wellingborough" livery to operate contracted services on behalf of Northampshire Council; some of these buses were sold to other operators following a retendering of services in 2011. The remainder received the standard Stagecoach livery around 2010-11.
