6955 on the X8 Dudley to Blackheath yesterday. Noticed it has Red upper wrapper instead of the purple it had in Coventry. Thought the purple would match the regular 67xx's on the X8.
Everything inside still registering Coventry though.

If by 'Ford' you are referring to a 'transit' style minibus, then no, it was a second hand purchase and has never operated for Johnsons

LGD Heading to sunny Torquay for 5 days. LGC went at the crack of dawn to the Forest of Bowland and the Ribble Valley, again back on Friday. Great to see tour customers back on board once again.

Any one know if the luxury  traveler coaches  that where due last year but stored due to covid, have arrived yet

They are coming w/c 10 May. Hopefully the first one will operate its first tour on 17 May - the first day possible for operating holidays. Fingers Crossed.

Crimson WN 2028 on X8 in Rowley Regis just before 8.00pm tonight. Obviously the PN batch were regulars on the 140 from new but never seen one of Wolverhampton's here before.

Unbranded Platinum 6762 on the X8 in Blackheath tonight. Rarely see buses so early in WN batch on this route... As it is so close to PN I was wondering whether it misses its sisters 6759-61 which have just moved or whether it has indeed itself moved to PN?
