It's been a month or so since East Norfolk Bus Blog published a report that a former Great Yarmouth AEC Swift WEX685M had been acquired for local preservation
|
Swift WEX885M loaded up and ready to go - someone has been playing with the destinations! |
The 1973 Eastern Coach Works bodied saloon has been acquired by Chris Speed, Business Manger for First Eastern Counties, and Danny Beales, First's Great Yarmouth Operations Manager
|
The Swift leaves for its journey south |
As everything appears to have gone quiet about the bus since then, you may have wondered what has been happening with it
|
The journey from Yorkshire begins |
Previous owner Nigel Blair contacted me last night to tell me that the Swift started its journey south from Yorkshire yesterday and sends me some photos showing the start of its voyage
|
WEX685M heads for Norfolk |
Many thanks to Nigel for the photos which are a taster of what is to come
Hi. Out of curiosity do you know if Mr Blair still has his Preston Panther (MCK229J)?
