Lincoln is divided by the railway and frequently everything comes to a halt when the crossing gates are closed to allow trains to pass through the station as seen below.
In March 2011 a fleet of bio-methane gas-fuelled buses were launched in Lincoln. They run on a mixture of conventional diesel and bio-methane gas, and operate around the Cathedral Quarter of Lincoln.
The engine runs firstly off diesel fuel but upon accelerating, gas stored in the tank on the roof is introduced using less diesel.
The buses are said to be “ no different to drive, are less noisy and reduces the carbon footprint by up to 50%.”
The buses are run by Stagecoach to test a new County Council initiative, supported by funding from the East Midlands Development Agency.
