This is more like it. A true contender for rarest working of the year.
South Tyne lad wroteOne of GNE's Riverside based Olympian's made a appearance on a section of my local route 88A ( The route that avoids the low bridge, So is allowed Double Decker's ) between Lukes Lane and Jarrow, Before being replaced.
Nah. Olympians could have feasibly showed up on any route without height restriction. If one showed up on you local route tomorrow then it might be considered a contender for next year.

Meh. It was just a Volvo and not a proper Leyland Olympian. You're not missing much.
