Rotala's 6 new Volvo B7RLE/ Eclipse are all parked in Long Acre today, all in white and unregistered. It looks like these will take fleetnumbers 30923-8 with 30923 allocated to Blue Diamond and 30924-8 allocated to Wessx Connect at Avonmouth

They are just plain white un-numbered, unregistered buses at the moment, not even worth a visit to Long Acre to ask if I can at the moment!

How come Blue Diamond are only getting 1?

Notice where the bulk of them are going again, not the Midlands ops....

Looking at the wessex red fleet its very modern, centro's, omnilinks,omnicity double deckers,eclipses,gemini's,tridents etc nice livery too

Ash

Well according to the Rotala fleetlist I received from the company this month those three are actually fleetnumbers 30925/8/4 and are in Royal Bath Blue livery allocated to Keynsham!

The source where you have got that fleetlist from isnt that accurate where Rotala is concerned there are alot of mistakes, so I only take notice to the fleet changes that Tony puts on his site regarding rotala. Also anyone know whats going to happen to all their withdrawn darts that are just parked up at Long acre are there going to be sold on, im sure some of those darts are better than the ones black diamond currently has in their fleet.
