East Coast Truckers

Normally on the Sunday before the August Bank Holiday, the East Coast Truckers Children's Convoy takes place when drivers take disabled and disadvantaged children in their cabs for a trip to Pleasurewood Hills. The public line the route to clap and wave to the children as the procession passes through Norwich, Acle, Great Yarmouth and Gorleston before arriving at the Suffolk attraction at around midday.



I snapped the convoy on Church Road passing St Andrew's Church with, as in previous years, Sanders Coaches providing the support vehicles.



They were Yutong GT12 DS25 NCH Delia Smith and Volvo B8R / Plaxton Panther OC21 SAN Oliver.



Robert Kelly tells me there was a third support coach - Yutong GT12 NO25 MWJ, although it didn’t take part in the convoy through Gorleston. Thanks Robert.
