L2 SLT was out today looking shiny wearing Helms livery, wasnt long before it broke down at Chester railway station though.

Ex-Helms Volvo Olympian N421JBV at PVS barnsley, I not know if that Helms sold N421JBV to Ensigns or straight to PVS.

Think that NWVRT might have had the engine out of one-off their olympians for L211 SBG, could have been that one.

The engine for L211 SBG was taken out of sister bus N422 JBV, which is currently being sored and used for spares at Kirkby.

Thanks, knew that they had one of them.

N422JBV left Kirkby bound for Barnsley a couple of weeks ago.

Looking closely at that photo I think it is N422JBV.
