A journey onboard Seaford & District 704 (ex Stagecoach 15404, also painted in yellow for The Big Lemon) operating the Southern Rail Replacement between East Grinstead to Gatwick Airport. The bus is a Scania Omnidekka N94UD with a 5 speed ZF and Euro 3 Scania DC9 engine. On the M23, it reached a top speed of 60mph making it the fastest N94UD I have ridden since riding ex Metrobus 438 on the A12 on Greater Anglia Rail Replacement. This was filmed when the Brighton Main Line was closed between East Croydon and Gatwick Airport with passengers advised to go via East Grinstead instead though there's a service to Gatwick Airport but it took a longer route, going via Epsom and Horsham due to the works taking place between East Croydon and Gatwick Airport.
