Yorkshire Rider Olympian C507KBT   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #3013 of 3468 |
Chaps,
 
 
5507 has been repainted into Yorkshire Rider livery (not quite finished yet).  A picture is online at http://www.typg.org.uk/5507.html (bottom of page).
 
 
A reminder to all that we are only a couple of weeks away from the Elland Road event.  A draft timetable for the free shuttles is online at http://www.typg.org.uk/event.html - of particular interest to enthusiasts will be the 14:05 departure from Elland Road to White Rose shopping centre which will run via the M1 motorway and be operated by 5507.  This will be a rare chance to travel on a high-ratio diff olympian at a realistic speed.
 
 
At the event itself there will be things for all the family, bouncy castles/kiddy go karts, and also the opportunity to have a stadium tour of Elland Road Leeds United FC.  The main event (outdoors, and indoor stalls) inc all bus rides is free to all - however extras like bouncy castles and stadium tours are charged for.
 
 
50 buses entered so far (space for more buses and trade stalls though).
 
 
Cheers
James

Thanks Paul and all for their kind words, I should point out that the only think I did was pay the bills. 5507 (and 6159 6294 5024) were painted by Sissons...
