 We are pleased to announce another trip with Leo's bus and coach tours. This event sees us travelling to Rotherham to sample Brecks international's MCW Metrobuses. To keep in with the theme, Lee Garrett of the Northern General preservation group has kindly offered to use Northern Metrobus UTN501Y 3501 for the event.

We will be leaving the following pick up points: Newcastle Central station at 0740 calling at Heworth metro 0755 then onto Washington Services 0810 and Durham at 0830. *If you wish to travel with us then please be on time as we have a tight schedule to be in Rotherham for 11:30 to meet Leo and the team* Tour details taken from Leo's bus and coach tours page: This will involve the use of 3 ex Travel West Midlands MCW Metrobuses, these will be GOG104W, GOG270W and B786AOC which are being provided by "Brecks International" of Rotherham.
