Cheers for that Boss!

Redwing would make another useful acquisition target to complement the growing NX commuter / private hire businesses.

I have 6 photographs of Clarkes vehicles in my files, they are now all on the main site, along with the above list at

http://wmbusphotos.com/NXWM/Clarkes/Clarkes.html

I notice Clarkes have a base on an Industrial Estate in Rochester for their commuter coaches. It's only 9.5 miles from TKF's Gillingham base (they are on opposite of the River Medway), I can see that being rationalised in the future, with the Clarkes Commuter coaches moving in to Gillingham either as Clarkes or being re-branded under TKF.

The above 2 coaches are no longer with Clarkes

Setra BF58UEV & the 10 x 10 Plate Tourismo's BV10ZKA - ZKK are all currently for sale. I assume that their replacements were ordered prior to the NX takeover.

Is is understood that a batch of new Turisomo's may have replaced them? Not sure if 66 plate or 17 plate, does anyone have any id's?
