There has been some movement between Blazefield's Yorkshire based fleets and the former Sovereign fleets in the London area, but not a lot. Older vehicles are the ones that move, and typically south to north. So this Leyland Olympian, which used to be in the LR class of London Country Bus Services and ended up with Sovereign via London Country North East has travelled north to Keighley. The bodywork is by the appropriate Yorkshire firm of Roe.Photo by Pete Brown. |

This Olympian has the more common ECW body and is one that was delivered new to the company from which Keighley & District's was formed - namely West Yorkshire Road Car.

The newest Olympians in the fleet were Northern Counties bodied examples and are broadly similar to examples put into service in other Blazefield fleets, including Sovereign London. Indeed this one is ex Yorkshire Coastliner.
