Does anyone on this forum know what GRS have done with all of their vehicles. Do they still have any of them at their bus depot or have all of them been sold to a bus dealer. Thank you.

@Adam 404 @Solo1 - Thanks for the info. Much appreciated. From searching all of the registration numbers on flickr none of the vehicles appear to have been sold to any other bus operators. I suppose that they might still be selling them or they might have gone to a bus dealer.

Scrap yard is more likely

@pndriver - Yes you could be correct. I suppose that there is indeed a chance that they have all gone to a scrap yard.

Saw him Friday at birmingham airport. He tried selling them to me. So I guess he still has them lol

@Steveminor - Thanks for the info. That is interesting to hear. It might be harder for him to sell his fleet because as far as i am aware most of his buses are not DDA compliant. However bus operators could still buy them and convert them to DDA compliant or just use them on private hire and private contract services.

Hasn't his company now ceased trading? Why ask if his vehicles are DDA compliant? Why ask if all "other operators" vehicles are DDA compliant? They all knew the law was coming into effect on 1st January 2016 so i would think that most (if not all) of the operators on the west midlands are now DDA compliant now on the Single Decker Front. They have a year for the deckers to be dda compliant, like central buses are getting there decker fleet done at the moment

@Chris - If you read my post correctly you will see that i did not ask if his vehicles were DDA compliant. I was just simply pointing out that his vehicles might be harder to sell as most of them are not DDA compliant. Also yes GRS Travel have indeed ceased trading.

@2206 I recall that they were selling them... Not sure if that was successful though.

Yes I know they were selling them on their Facebook page just after they finished on the 11 but it was said at the start of 2016 they still had not sold them.
