The vehicles listed without regsistrations haven't been delivered yet. I'm guessing you saw them on the fleetlist on nwbuses? If so, that's because the owner of that site has a good relationship with the management at Travellers.

Indeed I did Mbonwick. Is this one of theres http://www.flickr.com/photos/52890672@N05/8690175524/in/contacts/if it is is it on a B13R chassie or the smaller B9R chassie along with PE13HCF as listed above


RE: Travellers Choice - mbonwick - 29/04/2013 14:12

Yes that's one of Traveller's Choice vehicles. Must be a B9R because from the seating listed on NWbuses, the B13Rs are actually B13RTs...ie, tri-axles.


RE: Travellers Choice - james solomon - 29/04/2013 15:07

Must be slowly recieving the new vehicles then I suppose

Today saw FN63PXB http://www.flickr.com/photos/jongraham890/11803486576/ its first day in service. This new Caetano Levante features a number of modifications to the standard model including a revised body styling, drivers cab control layout, side lockers, fuel and adblue points towards the rear. Note the revised front grill area and headlight panels and is on a Volvo B11R engine


RE: Travellers Choice - mbonwick - 06/01/2014 18:50

Surely all these 'modifications' are actually just design changes as part of the shift from euro5 B9 to euro6 B11 chassis?


RE: Travellers Choice - james solomon - 05/03/2015 15:53
