I have now put all DeCourcey photos I have after recovering some old ones from fotopic. All pages have been put in the current format I am using with full histories and back and forward links on current vehicles. Any corrections, or photographs I can use of any missing vehicles gratefully received!

(It may may take about 5 minutes after this message appears for today's new additions to appear on the main site)

I have photo's of 579 & 821 which are not on the website if you would like aswell
Kind Regards, Adam.

@Tony Please can you correct the fleet list on your site.

571 has been sold: http://hillscoachsales.com/coach-sales/bus/2002-dennis-dart-slf-marshall-capital-3/
801 isn't on the scene either since it burst into flames last year.

Thank you.

The Ex-Dublin Volvo? That was there this afternoon, looked rubbed down ready for repaint

Its more than likely been mentioned, but do we have an ID of it?

It has, and every time it is I point out that it does not belong to DeCourcey

Adam,
I know this is meant for Tony but 571 and 801 are still on fleet.
571 Hills coach sales sell vehicles on behalf of operators. If you dig a bit deeper the majority of the vehicles for sale are still on the road.
801 is going to be repaired last i heard, it did the first time it had a fire.

Hi BN,
571 has been sold so I assume it  would have left for another operator / Scrap by now...
In regards to 801, when I visited the Rowley Drive Depot in late December, it wasn't present. Do you know where it is?
Also, a  bus catching fire  twice... Surely this isn't a good statistic... It would be very costly getting it back into the fleet... And the two Merc MCV's seem to be doing well on the X6.

Many Thanks.
