‘Scene’ on a PSV Circle Organised Visit At the Premises of ‘ATLANTIC TRAVEL (GB) Ltd’., Bolton 3 on Dennis Basford’srailsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’

The PSV Circle (of which I have been a member for some years) aims to hold an Annual General Meeting in a different location in the UK every year.

 

Usually held at a weekend, they also include visits to operators and other bus related venues for the attending members to visit and enjoy.

 

This year, the location being in the North West of England centred on the Holiday Inn Express, Preston.

 

Friend Peter Rose joined me for what turned out to be a sometimes wet, but very enjoyable weekend.

 

As we have done before, we have combined all the images we have gathered. 

 

The credits being joint D.Basford/P.M.Rose.

 

This was to be the last visit on the Saturday.

 

‘ATLANTIC TRAVEL (GB) Ltd’., has a history dating back to 2007 and in that time have gathered together a very well kept fleet.

 

Coincidentally, their depot is located next door to that of ‘Diamond Bus (North West) Ltd’.

The VOR (Vehicle Off Road) notice behind the windscreen and lack of identifying vinyls makes me think that it might not be around for much longer.
