Reported on Facebook that one Garnetts Tridents was on fire at a school this afternoon. Another 3 were seen expired on the A1 apparently!

Was just about to mention the Titan at Darlington College and notice your comment.
It is standing at the back of the college by the ECML and is missing a few panels/parts by the looks of it.

Just now passed it on the ECML. Most of the front and rear panels seem to have been stripped.

Are Garnett's doing the park&ride for 2014 Bishop Food festival?

Cheers for posting about that - might have to try and get myself there next Sunday before the 500 Group Teesside Running Day.
Looks like there's going to be a bus/coach departing every 12 minutes from two Park & Ride sites - with both of them running to the Market Place? Should make for some good photos.

Hated Bishop last time I went on a Sunday, but nevermind..!

I think it's usually Weardale who do this?

Yes...now you say i remember seeing a weardale wright meridian on duty but Garnetts's also had an interesting selection!

Ex Garnetts 1983 Volvo B10M is for sale - it's currently in Warrington.

A Garnett's Levante was parked up for a good while on Abbey Road, Durham earlier today.
No idea if it was broken down or what, but there wasn't a driver about - it wasn't parked in the best place just off a mini-roundabout either.

Garnetts have been buying at least two more Volvo/Sunsundegui coaches and i think maybe two of the older Vovo/Paxton may have gone to York Pullman.

Now in use with Garnetts is Plaxton Panther YN06PFD - Ex Classic

Have Garnetts been buying a Caetano Levante

Had a quick look at their fleet list and it appears not.
Was probably a case of me getting the wrong body down, rather than Garnetts having a Levante

Oh well would be nice if Garnetts got a Levante though

Do Garnetts still have CUB 69Y

W229 JBN has been painted into the Garnetts VIP Livery and W57 XGA,NIL 6482,G500 LWU have all been sold

How many Dennis Tridents do Garnetts still own?

Plain white Plaxton Panther NH04GCH (ex National Holidays) was used on a schools service into Darlington this morning. Didn't see the legal address but presume its a new addition for Garnetts.

Has Y359 NHK left garnetts now

HVX 771T has left the fleet now as Y359 NHK is back in service on Staindrop School service

(22 Apr 2015, 8:49 pm)Volvo Sideral wrote HVX 771T has left the fleet now as Y359 NHK is back in service on Staindrop School service

Is this the one that caught fire?

No we had it until last week then Y359 NHK come back but would love to go to the Garnetts depot though

A new addition to Garnetts is T100 STL

Correction: HVX 771T hasn't left the fleet as of yet as I was down just before the end of the summer holidays

I saw a red Decker this afternoon along with two Garnetts Deckers heading back to the Depot any idea if it has been bought by them.
