I noticed a Shamrock Olympian at HCT's depot today, the registration is C481 YWY. Is this owned by HCT or is it preserved?

Key word being believe, nothing concrete. Was on ebay a while since Yep and was back on after a 6month wait. Sold for £1,600.

The coastliner 1990's livery was the best. Would be nice to see Transdev buy it and use it on the 843 in summer.

This vehicle is NOT owned by HCT. N I was just going to point that one out (even though been away from PC all weekender as i would of posted it earlier on). I suspect even though i can be put right if needs be but i suspect that Olympian is there for storage use only similar to likes of the pair of Scania N113DRB's ex First which have both now moved on along with Preserved Striders which are linked with TWPG etc...

No-one said it was owned by them... It was said that it is going to be preserved in Yorkshire Coastliner...

It seems to have had dark ridges painted around the lights. I wonder if the person who gets it will restore it back to it's original condition. It's still got the original interior at least.

I believe so, Metro new 961 timetable has the operator name listed as Connexions.

Long overdue. Wonder if a Solo will replace it ?

Long overdue. Wonder if a Solo will replace it ? Given that they're losing three diagrams on the 142/143 and one on the 780 with the subsidy dance in April, my guess is that they'll be thinning down the fleet rather than replacing anything.

Actually, in the description it says they are replacing it with a Solo.
Although, that could be a 'valid' reason for sale.

Wonder if HCT will ever look at low floor deckers ?
