Hmmmmmm.  Are King Kong another of these "next big thing" bus and coach manufacturers that come and go in a short space of time ??  Taz coaches were a similar player a few years ago. I am sure others came come to mind in time.  ;)

 It reminds me of the Willowbrook Warrior body that was used to re-body old bus/coach chassis. Leyland Leopards if I remember.   Wow,thats going back a bit.  :o

 A quick check on Busview shows that W936JNF is/was a Minstral demonstrator/loan/hire vehicle and has worked for a variety of operators in its time.  And also, not seen by me in it's 14 year existence.  ;D

X372 CUY currently broken down on 3 route between Stourport and Kidderminster on the dual carriageway.

Not a good day for Diamond as VX54MUP left Bromsgrove bus station on suspended tow just before mid-day.  :-[   Also, Y252KNB was on the X3 this morning - hope the loadings were not too high.  ;)

Were there many passengers on the journeys that you saw?
