Those missing are TransBus Trident 19 [LR52KWU] & two Van Hool TX15 / Van Hool Alicron coaches YJ14CFL/M

It's a shame that Fishwicks has been lost and a testament to it that it lasted so long after deregulation, 29 years this weekend. Despite intense competition, Fishwicks always maintained a modern fleet and I wonder where its vehicles will end up. A few years back, it was rumoured that Arriva were interested in buying the company. With hindsight, it's a pity that that didn't happen.
