As well as Simon answering question on his 'ask NX OD' I have received an email from David Bradford, Commercial Director making this offer

We'd also like to extend an offer to any of your forum regulars who want to have a tour of a depot and/or AVL that they'd be more than welcome. We can set up a couple of times and dates if there is any interest.

Is there any interest?

Matt really wants to go to PN garage and he will be back tommorow night so i will ask him tony.


I did really enjoy my visit to Park Lane Garage and Matthew Jukes from WN garage has said i can do my work experience at WN next year!

That sounds like a very welcome idea to me, maybe it would be better to select a couple of the most popular depots & do a tour of a few all in the same day or over two separate dates, it may prove easier for NXWM to organize?

For me, I'd quite like for the tours to potentially include any the following BC, CV, PB, WA & WN, BY & AVL would also be an interesting visit as would the reserve fleets at MS & LH

Yes would love to see a garage or even the AVL side @ bordesley :-)

I WOULD LOVE IT! Preferably a tour of every depot, lol ;) Just Kidding.

Mainly:
BC, PB, WA, WB & PN
