Noted in use on Cofton's Bromsgrove Town services yesterday was SF15JPV, a Mellor demonstrator on a Fiat "chassis". :D
Back to one of the usual Mercs on these services yesterday - DK55NLF,[the other being "NLG"]. Both of these are 16 seaters and both are "step entrance", is there a time limit for how much longer they can be used on stage work or does the seating capacity of 16 exempt them from new regulations ?? :)
Cofton are now running YX62AXM, a Fiat Ducato with Bluebird low floor bodywork on their Bromsgrove town service. It has Eurobus as opposed to Euroliners vinyls. The vehicle was new to the Battersby/Harrison fleet. :)
Step entrance minibuses still appear from time to time on the Bromsgrove town service, WN10GJE was in service today with , interestingly , "Newmarket Holidays Coach 2" showing in the electric display blind. ;)
Cofton / Euroliners seem to have "gone missing" from their town services in Bromsgrove. :(

Oh dear. Thanks for the link. I have checked the Euroliners web site and to read it , nothing is amiss . . . . The timetables for the 97 and 98 are still shown. :o

I heard of this several weeks ago so fairly sure that drivers were aware. It appears from a third party that insurance quote substantially higher than last year so owners decided not to continue operation due to increased costs.
There appear to be five vehicles still on their premises. One Fiat - YX62AXM.Two Mercs - one of which is DK55NLG [the other "may" be DK55NLF] and two Transits - one of which is YL09OMX.
