The coach depot is at Hull (shares with the main Hull service fleet I believe, much like Chester-le-Street up here) and would be totally impractical for the GNE National Express operations to move down there.

(19 Jun 2018, 12:29 pm)Kuyoyo What is now Scarborough and District was part of United until deregulation, upon which point it was transferred to East Yorkshire along with the now closed Pickering depot. The old United Depot in Scarborough is now a multi-story car park of which all the Town Services pass at some point in their journey.

EYMS > Go East Yorkshire
S&D > Go Coastline (a bit of the bygone era haha)

Pleased about this acquisition. Will need to have myself a day in the Hull area in the coming months to get a better experience of their network.
(19 Jun 2018, 2:40 pm)cbma06 I think it states that the livery or something won’t be touch of something like that, brings back memory when stagecoach bought busways and the livery was going to stay the same , but that didn’t last long until the stripes were put on the fleet.

(19 Jun 2018, 6:29 pm)BusLoverMum Aye. Was definitely East Yorkshire around Hull in the late 80s. Our village was served by them and by Connor and Graham.
And on that note, I've found this nice bit of potted history.

Even then these EYMS buses did not all go to the scrap yard, as both 517 and 995 were bought by a small operator in the north-east for further service. 517 is now preserved and was at EYMS’s 80th anniversary celebration at the Hull Streetlife Museum of Transport.

It's opened up another query though.
Which small operator in the NE got the two VR's?

Continental got 517, too. Unlike 995, it is not living out its retirement as a seaside café.

(19 Jun 2018, 2:51 pm)S813 FVK The whole lot is staying the same. The livery, the names etc. To the naked eye nothing has changed.
(19 Jun 2018, 6:49 pm)BusLoverMum Looks like 995, at least, went to someone in Eston

(19 Jun 2018, 6:49 pm)Hull Busman Sure it was a firm in Stockton.
