Just thinking where "Diamond" could run an open-top tour ??   Birmingham ? Think that has been tried before though.  Maybe Kiddy and Bewdley to include the Safari Park when it re-opens . . . . Now I have visions of the On The Buses film including Longleat {?} Safari Park ! 
maybe around all the empty shops and road works in  the area

It was Windsor Safari Park, I believe - the one long since closed and turned into Legoland.
Thanks for that. I initially typed in Windsor , then changed it as I had my doubts . . . . . .

Correct. I used to live near it.
Don't judge me until you've walked in my size ten shoes.

To be fair, a commercial operator may be in a better position to run such a tour than the previous incarnation.
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

Just to confirm, the open topper is not owned by Rotala, it's just being stored by them at Kidderminster. It came up from Hounslow following that depot being closed.

Tony i did  not mean  which buses where allocated here. I was just  wondering  how many vehicles where allocated here at the moment with the reduce  service level .As for the extra buses i was on about  there are some come here  from the London area  for storage at this time  just wondered if they where for service  or  for sale
