Who'd want one, their sheds and cost thousands to maintain every year, not good for a preservationist thats making no money from it.

two more bendy buses are going has there was two tow trucks hooked up to two of them in in cherry row at 2:45 has i was going past on X99 to leeds I saw them going past the bus station about 3:30ish. Couldn't see which ones they were though. I had a quick walk to the depot and it looked like it was the two that were lined up just to the left of the gates. Cheers Andy

I've fallen behind a bit with keeping tabs on what's there but I believe five of the remaining bendys are 10021/22/24/26/30. The others are over to the far left of the main gate, the two which were parked immediately to the left of the main gate, 10023/31 have recently gone.
Purple 'slugs' 19020/22 are still there, or at least they were on Sunday.
Engineless Royale 30244 (East Lancs roof) has also recently departed. Other Olympians still there are 30825/31771/772/773/805/806/34101/207.
30245/247/838 are probably still there but can't remember seeing them when I was last there, must pay more attention!
The Cummins Solos 53301-3 are also still there, as is trainer 61364 (L304 VSU).

What was left of 10031 was in the PVS yard a couple of weeks ago

Is there an agenda here with all theses buses going for scrap, is Cherry Row to be sold off or reopened as an operational garage? Are there any photo`s anywhere of the bendys at PVS?

Wow thanks for the pic. Such a sad sight to see not 1 but TWO of my favourite buses in 1 place & in the same picture! (The Arrow in the background)

I've been back to Cherry Row today to 'firm up' on which Olympians are still there but while I was there I took the attached pic of a sad line up on 'death row' awaiting their fate. They are (l to r) 10030/21/26/24/19 and afraid can't remember the one to the far right. Further up the yard are 10023 (which yesterday I reported had gone, but obviously it hasn't, it's just moved!!) and it's parked next to Manchester 10004. Towards the middle of the yard is Manchester 10011. Also to confirm/correct yesterday's report the only Royale there is 30825. 30245/247/838 appear to have recently departed. Most of the Alexander RH types previously reported are still there along with the two Northern Counties, 34101/207. Attachment Deleted

View AttachmentThe 1 on the far right is 10028 which was 1 of the first to get robbed of parts as it is missing various rear panels amongst other bits even from when it first arrived in Cherry Row!
