Holmeswood Coaches: YJ56WTZ by Matthew Jimmison, on Flickr
In the window there is a notice saying "ON LOAN TO TRAVELSURE COACHES LTD" with the legal address also on the piece of paper next to the door. The Holmeswood legal address is still on display next to the door.
So I'm guessing it's a loan? Not sure...
Could well be a loan from BASE, Holmeswood's dealership.

Ah admittedly I didn't notice that part, thanks for clearing that up!
Besides MX10DXP being a new addition to Travelsure as I reported some months ago, its sister vehicle MX10DXS has also joined the fleet, seen doing the 472 today also in plain white livery.

Will be a Mercedes Benz Tourismo 15M if its 3 axled.
Some updates on the coach fleet...
Setra KIB545 has reverted to BX56VUM, suggesting it may be for sale?
Setra 697BYU appears to have left the fleet - this plate is now on a Javelin which must be a new addition??
Iveco 709LAU has been re-registered to ???
BMC Falcon BX55NYG has been scrapped.

According to a comment made on my Flickr last night, YJ56WTZ was provided by the insurance company to cover for Mercedes Sprinter MX06XEL which is currently in Gardiner's of Spennymoor after receiving accident damage in Lowick. It has now been returned to Holmeswood Coaches.

They haven't announced any plans, not that I'm surprised. Ellingham is such a small village, I'm surprised it's commercially viable!

It only runs once on a Wednesday too! If not, Thursday.

Where did you get this info from?

one of the staff members who I know and trust told me
This is Travelsure competing with Arriva. If this gets out of hand I can see Arriva withdrawing the mutual ticket acceptance.
