Success! I was hoping to get this with the revised lettering, but our trip to town was at short notice. I put a message in the NCT Fleet News Facebook page anyway in the hope they could tell me what it was on, and they responded very quickly - and I was in almost the right place. Carrying 1950s livery, many of the batch have already left the fleet, so this is on borrowed time.
It appeared at both Showbus and at the 140 celebrations on 22nd September, but was withdrawn on 27th December 2018. Nottingham Heritage Vehicles are trying to raise money to purchase it for preservation - as a low floor bus it will be more accesible, and able to visit more locations than their articulated saloon.
Update - the charity were indeed successful in raising the money, and 676 was transferred to their ownership in January 2019.
