I'd never heard of them. Have they had the contract long?
I think they've had the contract for a couple of months or so now. I regularly see a pink/black/white Plaxton Pointer 2 (V383 SVV), acquired from Blue Diamond, still in the Touchwood Connection livery minus the livery logos.
They also have another Plaxton Pointer 2, W208 DNO, which still carries the Rotala Central Connect livery, again minus company names/logos.

I'm assuming it's these guys?

Thanks to tyresmoke who solved the mystery on the "North East Independents" Facebook group - PCL Travel appear to be selling ex-Astro T313JWA.

Providing PCL Travel haven't retrieved more than one, this was P363DSA as can be seen here.

Is a similar livery I give you that. Quite decent little thing, sounded great. Fantastic to see a B6 still in action.

Just to keep you up to date...
P363DSC is a Volvo B6BLE, PLZ3055 I believe (from what I can find) got sold... as for PAZ2531, this is how it ended up: http://www.flickr.com/photos/33944268@N07/4489608359/
That should (according to my list) give you P363, W208, CCZ6058 and PUI9499 operational.

Plaxton body on it, white with blue/red swirl - same livery it's had for a while, just minus the Caris Coaches titles... Dan got a shot of it recently

Cheers! I've merged your thread into our existing PCL Travel thread just so we don't have two of the same thread.

pcl travel alx200 is in the car wash place on victoria road east parked at the back.
RE: PCL Travel
Van Hool BAZ7053 has been acquired from Priory Coaches. I expect they've had it a while but nobody seems to report their fleet very often so they must hide quite well!
If anyone can have a look for me, they've got two registered yards and 11 o-licences...

RE: PCL Travel
It appears that PCL have not yet acquired a suitable vehicle for their new NCC contract work as the 808 and 613 were being served by a Walton's Luxury Travel, Vario yesterday.

Indeed I went to photo the PM 808 on Monday and a Waltons Vario turned up then too.

PCL are now using a Mercedes Sprinter Mellor PN06 FJC on their NCC contract work. This vehicle was recently with The Eden of West Auckland.

So much for low floor operation - this was on the 808 last night.
Forgive me for the poor quality photo.

What is meant to run it?

This is what should be on the 808, plus their other services.
