They sometimes appear on the 503 & 579 on Saturdays in Halifax. They might be an Olympian on the Sainsburys run in Halifax too.

First still run LEYLAND Olympians but in Stoke (schools) , Dorset and Cornwall. HURRY UP ! because once the (ironic !) Olympics are over the 200 LF double deckers bought for the games will be flooding the provinces in the autumn. sconehead85 |

Very rare now in Bradford on a Saturday, could be one working on the first staff depot shuttle. Sometimes Halifax sends one over on the 576 route via Queensbury . If you see a Olympian on the 576 get on it, very nice run!

34045 is on the 576 now as we speak. They dont tend to put them on the 576 a lot because there is a woman in a wheelchair who lives at Queensbury that complains & has wrote to Aberdeen about it and they avoid putting them on if they can.

Saw a Alexander Royale Volvo Olympian on the 576 last Monday morning heading to Bradford. Overtook it in Great Horton whilst on a B7TL 576 also heading to Bradford.
