There has been some movement between Blazefield's Yorkshire based fleets and the
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.

A second LR on route 25A about to head across the Pennines to Lancashire and
what is now Blazefield's second major operating area in Lancashire.

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 are 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.
