There is a local bus contract starting in Chorley in September but otherwise it's just schools and the football.

Since then, most of the Olympians have been withdrawn, with the sole exception of CHO 213Y (S463 ATV). I'm presuming that Volvo B10M TYR 3R has also been withdrawn, since the registration TYR 3R went onto a brand new Van Hool Astromega in April 2018.
I will attempt to research a full current list and put it online; any help appreciated.
CHO 213Y and JUM 800S stayed in the fleet as they were both seatbelted, JUM 800S has now been withdrawn sadly. The old TYR 3R became 4312 FM and is still in use.

P103 HNC has left the fleet this morning, I am led to believe it's been sold to a company in Retford.

I'm led to believe from an informant that due to the ceasation of operations by Finch's (Wigan) due to having their licence took off them that if anyone tries ringing up Finch's number now that it automatically gets diverted to Tyrers so it looks like Tyrers have took on most if not all of Finch's work now.
