A few updates from the ETG companies in trying to update my own fleetlists (I'll try and work on the forum ones too!)

Firstly, Durham City Coaches were due to be closed down at the end of March but the current Coronavirus situation may have delayed this. The fleet is expected to be transferred to the other two operators in the group.
The fleet across Enterprise & Lee's are to be transferred into the new European Travel Group livery as displayed by new Lee's Levante FJ09DWY - https://flickr.com/photos/149211937@N08/49663419522/. Enterprise Temsa Safari YJ17CXV is the first to receive it at that operation.
