Looks as though Harry Shaw have recently taken delivery of at least 3 x Volvo B11R / Caetano Levantes tri-axle for NX route 230 - BX65WCR/WCO/WCT

@B61 ANDREW - Thanks for pointing that out. The 230 is a former Yourbus route which was taken off them for poor performance. The title of the photogrpahs & subsequent comments do not fill me with convindence - 'how the mighty have fallen' / possibly lost of load of tour work / poor tour reviews / potentially reported to VOSA / 27 drivers short for NX work......

 Had a nice surprise yesterday as catching our return Setra coach to Larnaca airport on Cyprus , after about ten minutes into our journey, I noticed that on the pouches for holding newspapers etc on the back of coach seats was the wording "Harry Shaw City Cruisers". With some research and a lot of trawling through photo's on Flickr , I have found that we were travelling on the former BX04NCC , now carrying TKVH771 and owned by Xanthos Coaches of Larnaca.    8)

   Always next time !! !! I have some more "research" to do to try and identify a couple of Wright bodied buses - suggestions that they could of been ex-BakerBus and an Optare bodied bus in red livery which may or may not of been ex-London Buses.   ;)

It is being reported Harry Shaw has taken over some or all of the Harrington t/a Bakers work from Reaseheath college.
