RE: Ex-MTL Volvo B10B Wright Endurances 6501 - 6623 - mathias - 04/05/2016 15:37 Watched 'The 51st State' over the recent May Day Bank Holiday (starring Samuel L Jackson and Robert Carlyle). Details.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_51st_State Can't say I was too impressed by the film (made in 2001), but I only watched it for the recognisable landmarks in Liverpool City Centre. However, there was one particular 'landmark' that caught my eye, an Arriva B10B going the WRONG WAY up James Street! It was actually Arriva Merseyside 6588 (N588 CKA) seen here as Carlyle swerves in front of it in his Jaguar XJ6... https://www.flickr.com/photos/57271897@N06/5551404766/ (Film Still; alican reilly) Ah, the B10Bs! Where are they now? Time for a Flickr update methinks Needless to say, 6588 went to Edwards Coaches (along with 6586 and 6594) all still taxed 'til the end of August (thankfully). Makes me wonder though, are they aware they've got a film star in their depot? Talking of ex-6586, its rear window has been panelled-over, makes the Endurance body look unusual... https://www.flickr.com/photos/48626211@N03/24251192354/ (Photo Credit; Liam Murphy) Sadly, ex-6518 (M518 WHF) seen better days, still with Turners of Essex... https://www.flickr.com/photos/ipswichbuspage/16742602351/ (Photo Credit; Colin H) Ex-6574 (M574 YEM) looking healthy, still with Express Motors.... https://www.flickr.com/photos/60581779@N08/19919458164/ (Photo Credit; Glaster2011) Ex-6582 (N582 CKA) shining brightly with Ellenbrook... https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter/25635396234/ (Photo Credit; Ant's Buses & Eddies) Sadly, Collins Coaches ex-6590 (N590 CKA) looks like its days are numbered... https://www.flickr.com/photos/thebestintown/25166523571/ (Photo Credit; Liam Farrer-Beddall) Ex-6617 (N617 CKA) may have a brighter future, Blythswood Motors have sold her, looks like she'll be back on the road soon. Now with a new owner.... https://www.flickr.com/photos/51738247@N03/26079238640/ (Photo Credit; Mark Bowerbank) And finally, ex-6621 (N621 CKA) been sold by Brecks International, now owned by Essbee.
