Following the withdrawal of the Volvo Alexander Striders the only buses now in the Arriva Yorkshire fleet which had previously carried West Riding Green are 621-3 Volvo Olympians at Selby and those in Yorkshire Maroon are 170-199 ALX200 Dennis Darts. The latter having spent all or until this summer most of their lives at Dewsbury.
Any offers as to which the last ex-Green or ex-Maroon buses will be. I doubt that 621-3 will be at Selby that much longer. They could be pressed into service elsewhere but not necessarily in Arriva Yorkshire.

I'm pretty sure that some of the older olympians are still in service with various coach companies. Also some of the striders are still in service, M427 UNW is with Tanat Valley-I don't know if this was in Green at any point in its life but I guess it was. Many of the Lances are also in service, L826 NYG is in service with JPT travel in Manchester, L830 NYG is in service with Helms coaches in Cheshire and quite a few are with GRS travel in Birmingham, I'm off down next week to sample them .
