PCL Travel - Andreos1 - 13 Jun 2013 These have the Sainsburys bus from Wrekenton and had a purple MPD on it. I'd never heard of them. Have they had the contract long? RE: PCL Travel - Adam - 13 Jun 2013 (13 Jun 2013, 4:09 pm)Andreos1 These have the Sainsburys bus from Wrekenton and had a purple MPD on it. I think they've had the contract for a couple of months or so now. I regularly see a pink/black/white Plaxton Pointer 2 (V383 SVV), acquired from Blue Diamond, still in the Touchwood Connection livery minus the livery logos. They also have another Plaxton Pointer 2, W208 DNO, which still carries the Rotala Central Connect livery, again minus company names/logos. RE: PCL Travel - gtom - 14 Jun 2013 I'm assuming it's these guys? http://www.pcltravel.co.uk/ Less said about that website the better eh? RE: PCL Travel - Dan - 26 Sep 2013 Thanks to tyresmoke who solved the mystery on the "North East Independents" Facebook group - PCL Travel appear to be selling ex-Astro T313JWA. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/mercedes-28-seat-coach-/131001249797?pt=UK_Minibuses_Buses_Coaches&hash=item1e80487005 Spotted in Hexham back in July with no vinyls: http://www.flickr.com/photos/danielgrahamm/9787522724/ RE: PCL Travel - Adam - 23 Oct 2013 Seen on the Team Valley Sainsbury's shuttle today is an ALX200 that looks as if it's in a debranded McGill's livery. Never managed to get ID RE: PCL Travel - Dan - 01 Nov 2013 (23 Oct 2013, 9:58 am)Adam Seen on the Team Valley Sainsbury's shuttle today is an ALX200 that looks as if it's in a debranded McGill's livery. Never managed to get ID Providing PCL Travel haven't retrieved more than one, this was P363DSA as can be seen here. RE: PCL Travel - Adam - 01 Nov 2013 (01 Nov 2013, 6:40 pm)Dan Providing PCL Travel haven't retrieved more than one, this was P363DSA as can be seen here. that's the one. Obviously not ex-McGill's then RE: PCL Travel - mattdw92 - 02 Nov 2013 (01 Nov 2013, 6:51 pm)Adam that's the one. Obviously not ex-McGill's then Is a similar livery I give you that. Quite decent little thing, sounded great. Fantastic to see a B6 still in action. (01 Nov 2013, 6:40 pm)Dan Providing PCL Travel haven't retrieved more than one, this was P363DSA as can be seen here.P363DSA. Ex-31363 of Stagecoach, left the group in 2011 for Heartlands under the reg of HSV658. RE: PCL Travel - tyresmoke - 02 Dec 2013 Just doing a bit of research into these guys and they seem to have a number of older coaches too. Does anyone know if they still have V383SVV? RE: PCL Travel - tyresmoke - 04 Dec 2013 (04 Dec 2013, 10:40 am)BusFanPrudhoe I have compilled a fleet list on my website for PCL. It can be found at http://www.sco1996.comxa.com (use the Fleet Lists sub menu). I haven't come across anything on V383 SVV. Just to keep you up to date... P363DSC is a Volvo B6BLE, PLZ3055 I believe (from what I can find) got sold... as for PAZ2531, this is how it ended up: http://www.flickr.com/photos/33944268@N07/4489608359/ That should (according to my list) give you P363, W208, CCZ6058 and PUI9499 operational. RE: PCL Travel - tyresmoke - 18 Dec 2013 Another new addition here is Mercedes Vario HBZ4676 which has done the rounds a bit, formerly with Low Fell then Caris got it and now it's ended up with PCL Travel, just found it parked up in Wealcroft estate RE: PCL Travel - tyresmoke - 18 Dec 2013 (18 Dec 2013, 12:26 pm)BusFanPrudhoe Information added to my fleet list. do you have details on the body and livery of the vehicle? Plaxton body on it, white with blue/red swirl - same livery it's had for a while, just minus the Caris Coaches titles... Dan got a shot of it recently RE: PCL Travel - Dan - 18 Dec 2013 (18 Dec 2013, 12:32 pm)tyresmoke Plaxton body on it, white with blue/red swirl - same livery it's had for a while, just minus the Caris Coaches titles...

I've merged your thread into our existing PCL Travel thread just so we don't have two of the same thread.

RE: PCL Travel - tyresmoke - 24 Jan 2014 Would appear Dart W208DNO is with City Sprinter in Glasgow. RE: PCL Travel - Adam - 13 May 2014 PCL seem to have acquired a Volkswagen/Bluebird minibus, registered SF08 GLJ. It's been operating the Team Valley Sainsbury's shuttle for the past week or so.
