Whitestar Travel - Andreos1 - 30 Mar 2014
I have been meaning to have a look at the depot for a while and seeing as I was heading home that way via Success Road, thought it worth a neb.
As well as having two Tommys Travel coaches parked up, an ex Arriva Rxxx MNU Olympian was parked up.
Didn't get full reg due to a lorry needing to be past.

Did you see what livery the decker had? Caris had R620MNU until they got closed down... Wouldn't be surprised if it was that one.

It was all white.
Only saw it from the one side due to the way it was parked - but any mention of Caris was removed, if it was the same vehicle.

It appears the Olympian is R620 MNU - it is definitely Rx20 MNU, but a parked coach and gate clouded the view of the whole reg plate as I drove by earlier today.

Apparently this Olympian belongs to DND Travel in Sunderland?

It hasn't been at the Philly site for a while, or certainly not when passing.
Haven't been up to the gates recently, but the yard seems a lot less cluttered.

I was at their yard yesterday, Olympian P690GHC was present. This is the party bus which is often parked outside the Mushroom bar in Newcastle on Saturday evenings. It's operated by Help Me To Go Limited.

Recently acquired is FDB340C Leyland Titan looking very smart in a dark blue and white livery.
It's licenced as a PSV.
