European Travel Group (Durham City, Enterprise & Lee's)
European Travel Group (Durham City, Enterprise & Lee's)
New thread to merge the discussion of the following three operators:
- Durham City Coaches
- Enterprise Travel
- Lee's of Durham
Now all part of the same group - named European Travel Group
Vehicles are being moved around the group as and when required, with expansion expected for the 2016 season. A new livery is also being introduced at all three operators, to give the same look across the whole group.
As worn by Durham City YJ10JYW
Volvo B10M Jonckheere N2DCC is re-registered to N228RGA and transferred to Enterprise, along with Berkhof FJ05AOE.
Durham City Volvo Olympian R114LHK has been re-registered to the N2DCC plate.
Bova YJ07DVY has been re-registered to JSV487 but I'm unsure what's happened to the Premier that previously wore that plate!?
Another boring white livery! Used to like Durham City Coaches livery.
Have just seen Lee's ELZ 3700 with the new livery applied and it actually looks really smart. It looks like even though all 3 companies will carry the 3 swooshes, the colours are individualised, so the Lee's one is all blue.
Unfortunately, I had to hold onto Littl'un for dear life, as he'd noticed the change, too, and would probably have chased it, given half a chance, which meant I couldn't get my phone out and activate the camera in time, before it left the bus stop. I'll try to be ready tomorrow - in fact, I'll tell big'un to take his camera out, as he'll be with us.

I noticed, this week, that ELZ 3700 might have shiny new vinyls, but it's an absolute rustbucket underneath!
Enterprises N256THO and the 08 plate Bova are both repainted in the latest livery
Durham City Coaches A16TVL & LUI7648 are now in the new livery

Lee's Volvo B12B MEZ9978 is now re-registered as 273GYE.
Mercedes 273GYE is now back as SV53ELJ - has it been sold?
MEZ9978 is now on an older Volvo B10M but I have no idea what.
Joining the fleet at Lee's recently is Volvo B10M Premiere N2SFC.
The majority of the fleet across all operators is now in the new group standard livery.
