Saw a Dales and District Wright Streetlite on the 72 or 27 in Darlington today. I don't know the fleet number. I didn't even know they had a streetlite! It was the type with the door behind the front wheels.

Heard a story today, that Mr Proctor owns a pub/restaurant in N Yorks, as well as his bus business.

Apparently it is a fairly recent purchase and the changes haven't gone down too well with locals.

What's changes? Bus service changes?

He's got fingers in many pies, with the Procters' motorsport and the Swift Signs business.

Indeed, it entered service today working 18/19s and 492s - can anyone spot something different about it Wink

Wrong - it doesn't have Arriva trim inside, the trim inside this is the
same as that in SN05HDF.

Getting warm - it is external.

I think you mean, the old company logos. A 'one-off' for this example.

Just standard Mistral/dealer stock trim, much like what's left of the E200s with the burgundy one.

Compass Royston Volvo B9R YN11FVF is now plain white wearing Trafalgar logos. Some new coaches were said to be due for this contract, nothing has turned up yet, though...

Dales & District have two new ADL Enviro 200s, YX14RZC/D that are due to enter service tomorrow.

Latest transfer from Procters to Compass Royston is Volvo B10M 400KFU, which appeared on the Asda run last week.
Also, Volvo B9R YN11FVF which was wearing Trafalgar names is now back in plain white.

Andreos1 · 19 May 2014, 12:32 am,

A stack of Proctors and Compass Royston coaches were on Wembley runs today.
As well as the b12's and Astromega's, there were some that I couldn't identify.
