Taylor's Reliance 617 MUR (PGH 687Y) at Barton Mills - 19 Aug 1995

Saturday 19 August 1995 - Taylor’s Reliance Coaches, Meppershall, Bedfordshire 617 MUR was a Plaxton Paramount I bodied Volvo B10M new to Richardson Coaches, London SW14 as PGH 687Y in June 1983.

Taylor’s had a number of vehicles that had been updated with later model front panels and this coach has a Paramount III lower front panel. It was seen here during a refreshment break at Barton Mills when working the Cromer, Sheringham and Mundesley summer Saturday service.

In the timetable for 1995 this service also called at various points to serve the Norfolk Broads boatyards but these destinations were not shown in the timetable for 1998 so I presume they did not prove popular as the coastal resorts themselves. The company also operated a service to the resorts and holiday sites along the coastal area around Great Yarmouth, Hemsby and Lowestoft.
