Noted in the torch convoy on Tuesday passing through North Wales were Streetlites CN12 ASU with fleet number 8 and CN12 ASV, fleet number 9 along with two Van Hool 911Ts BT08 BUZ and BT11 BUZ (Did not see any fleet numbers on these)
On Friday when the torch passed through Birkenhead there were two different Streetlites CN12 ARZ, fleet number 6 and CN12 ASO, fleet number 7 along with the same two Van Hools.

On both days the promotional convoy ahead of the torch consisted of FX54 AYF (Coca Cola), FJ12 AWX (Samsung) - sorry I don't have the make of these two HGVs - and the ex Malta bus SKR 801G (Lloyds TSB)

There were various cars and vans plus the media vehicle which appears to be a converted horsebox both ahead and behind the torch including YK12 SRU noted
above which is a BMW.
