Great, nice to see the old Coventry colours making another comeback!

I doubt decorcey would set up any serious commercial work in Birmingham "yet" as they are top buddies with National express, "you dont bite the hand of who feeds you".

I was at MIller ST a couple of weeks ago and there was a De courcey van there.

While they were doing the groundworks there earlier this year, alongside the NEx livery coaches in the yard, I noted MJI2367 (28/01/12) and 571 (21/02/12) , and on two occassions there were d/deckers present, including 806 (14/02/12).

Coventry depot bring over vehicles for us to MOT.

Rob, have DeCourcey got any plans to expand the number of NX diagrams / size of NX coach fleet at B'ham depot or even operate some out of Coventry?

[BN]

Yes we happen to have a new route starting friday which is the 310 to Leeds for 12 months leading to the possibility of a 5yr contract. We also have summer season 545 to LLandudno and 387 to blackpool.

Thanks Rob, will MDC require any additional Levantes for those routes or just use the existing fleet / MDC liveried coaches in the interim

No more Levantes unless Nax Ex award the 310 for 5yrs. We have 2 spare Levantes so will alternate them with a couple of Marcopolo's on the blackpool and LLandudno routes I guess. The whole fleet will have the new destinations on them for friday so its whatever is avaliable.

Is that the 0830 ex Birmingham 310? Was that with Travelstar previously?

No the 1515 from BCS 2030 off Leeds.

There isn't a 1515 from BCS to Leeds. Leeds leave at 1345, 1400 (direct), 1615 (Direct) & 1630. Is it instead the 1515 from Cov?

[Ally]

That's a shame! I use the 310 back from Sheffield roughly every month, leaves Sheffield at 17:10. I'd prefer to have de Courcey running it rather than Travelstar European. That journey has very bad overcrowding problems leading to it running late a lot, it usually has no or barely any seats free when leaving anywhere until Coventry.
