The annual open day takes place on Sunday 13th January. For many people it will be the final chance to view one of the companies Neoplan Starliner 2s. Just 2 remain in the fleet and will be withdrawn soon as will the final MAN powered Van Hool Tx17s. (currently all 6 2014 examples remain in service)
Parrys International will once again then have a complete Van Hool touring fleet and all powered by Daf.
This will end a 17 year relationship with MAN.

Can you just turn up and have a look round, or do you need to book it, and what times will it be open?
Thanks.

How far is it from Landywood station, seeing there's no bus there on Sundays?

(Is it right 'Porky' that used to do the travel on Beacon is now working for them? Saw a Facebook post that suggests so!)

5 minute walk on Google, can probably do it quicker.
