P109WJO and N962DWJ in the company's Southtown yard in December 2013 |
He kindly responded by saying that both the blue liveried Dennis Javelin P109WJO and the Volvo B10M N962DWJ had been disposed of. Both had been advertised for sale in recent issues of Route One magazine with the latter being offered for sale as spares or for repair
The former has gone to 3D Travel of Cleator Moor in Cumbria whilst the latter has moved to P & M Coaches of Wickford in Essex. Also joining WJO is a third Swift coach GLZ3141 which was noted in active service with Swift earlier this month
My appreciation goes to Swift's Kevin Boyne for providing the information
Following my report, contributor Joe Leathers Watson thought he would check back with the Swift Taxis' website and found that a fourth member of the fleet was for sale! It was Volvo B10M 491JVX, a 50 seater with Plaxton bodywork. Formerly registered as M124UWY, it was new to Wallace Arnold way back in March 1995. It subsequently became part of the National Holidays fleet
It appears that the current Swift Taxis fleet is becoming a mere shadow of its former self
