Irish Duplicate

Omar Atiallah contacted me yesterday evening with information that Norwich Bus Station received an unusual visitor around lunch time that day.

It appeared on a rare National Express duplicate 10:00 departure from London Victoria and is seen at the bus station at around 13:50. The coach, with Irish registration of 161-D-9260, was a Jonckheere SHV bodied Volvo B11R from the Bernard Kavanagh of Urlingford fleet, situated in County Kilkenney in Ireland. A little off its usual beaten track you might say!

I understand from Colin Oakley that it then returned to London to work the overnight service to Cork

My thanks to Omar for the photo and to Colin for the update
