Diamond Travel
Any idea who is behind these?

Saw an 06 reg Bova in Chester earlier.
A short while later, it came down Ropery Lane.

Local/Durham number on rear of the vehicle.

Edit: It appears the reg was N606. The set up of the plate, looked like NG06.
Photos on flickr of the coach I spotted.
Never seen/heard of them at all.

Must be some sort of 'phoenix' company?

Dan has a picture of what I'm guessing is the vehicle you seen here note the reg is displayed so it looks like an 06 reg but its not

Its Kenneth Harrison T/A Diamond Travel and it's based at Riverside Industrial Estate in Langley Park. He has an operators licence for two vehicles but this is the only one I can distinguish as his, unless they have something running around in an allover white livery. Only time I have seen this vehicle is on SAFC match day's as is shown in Dan's picture. Kennith Harrison also had dealings with a company called Acorn Travel and they operated from the Craghead area of Stanley, don't think it's trading anymore though so Diamond looks like a reincarnation of Acorn.

You quoted the post, before the edit.
When looking at the photo online, I noticed the quirk in the reg plate.

Must have had a run out today somewhere, with flitting around Chester.

Cheers for clarifying though.
