Was told a few days ago that the Olympians at Wardies are being replaced by DAF DB250///Alexander ALX400s. The tri axle Leylands have already departed I believe

There are 3 wardles deckers parked up at Cannock

Ashley 4569

Are they volvo olympians?

covlad27

The 3 tri axle leyland ollys are parked up in cannock withdrawn and are going to be sold shortly

The three tri axles have been sold and must just be awaiting collections.

There was a volvo olympian knocking about in newcastle bus station this morning.

Also, Trident 4895 has now been branded for the X50

"stripped ready for exit". I presume for a repaint, but I am wondering if they might be transferred out afterwards with that caption



Just a general thread for Wardles, like the Cannock and Wednesfield ones

Ashley

I think these two are owned by Stoke on Trent City Council so could be being returned to them for re-sale

You are right Ashley. They are going to another operator

I was sort of guessing what their fate was to be honest John. I just knew Wardies don't own some of their Versa fleet
