DP class

The DP class consists of 121 Dennis Trident 2 double-decker buses with Plaxton President bodywork, numbered DP28–DP31, DP36–DP74, DP82–DP85, DP87–DP110 and DP113–DP162.

DP28–DP31, DP36–DP74, DP82–DP85 and DP87–DP110 were produced by Dennis/Plaxton, while DP113–DP162 were produced by TransBus.

DP class vehicles are currently operated by Localbus East Anglia at Ipswich; Localbus East Midlands at Parliament Street; and Localbus Scotland at Edinburgh, Longstone and Seafield. Additionally, DP28–DP31 and DP36–DP45 currently serve as driver training vehicles with Localbus Scotland at Longstone and Seafield and Localbus South East at Reading.

Former class members DP1–DP27 and DP32–DP35 were withdrawn and sold by December 2016 owing to their advanced age and non-DDA status. These were followed by DP75–DP81, DP86 and DP111–DP112 in August 2017.
