Voel Coaches, Dyserth

Voel have taken delivery of two MAN / Neoplan Tourliners. - OU17OTV photo NS arrived on 31st July - photo OS. OU17OTW - photo arrived a week later. Photo inside OTW and Photo cab OTW.

Left the fleet in part exchange are PJ60VNF and YN14PMX - the latter is now with Llew Jones Llanrwst.



D Jones and Son, Acrefair.

Arrived here is Solo SR YJ12NBN - photo from Marchant Cheltenham. It has arrived in the red livery of Marchant but now that Versa YJ13HJO is back from repaint it will be next to have a full repaint. The slot was to be taken by the third ex Webber Versa - but this repaint is now delayed.

It is also hoped that YJ12NBO will also be purchased but for the next couple of weeks this is still required by Marchants so the sale has yet to be completed and confirmed.

The intention is to use both buses on the 41/42 Wrexham Industrial estate service as they are a little shorter than the Versas and will manage some of the narrow housing estates a little easier.

Whilst the firm have intention to replace some of the fleet in the near future there has been no further purchases made. The report of six Solo SR's being purchased is therefore a little inaccurate.

I presume you actually mean the 41/42 the 40 goes to Mold

Where was the report of six SRs arriving at the company?

Yes - thank you for pointing out my silly error.

On the Yahoo Wales forum and repeated on Facebook - (North & Mid Wales bus and coach Heritage and Current). Apparently the source was a driver.
