Nightingale Coaches
Nightingale Coaches
Some buses have started to be moved already but on Saturday 10th May, Nightingale coaches will officially leave their depot at Greencroft for South Moor which is the end of the street with the Chippy on the corner. This could possibly link to why they had buses taking enthusiasts to their depot a couple of weeks ago from Durham.

I always thought their garage was located in South Moor between Bridge Street and Charlotte Street. I've delivered things there before.

And to prove to myself that I'm not imagining things, I managed to photograph a couple of Nightingale vehicles parked at the Bridge Street location while at work today.

DAF Van Hool T8 NCZ5381 has been part exchanged with Gardiners NMC - not sure whether they have got anything new or if it may have been for one of the coaches previously mentioned arriving.
Now for sale on eBay - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/T8-Vanhool-DAF...1a04124d5c
