Worcester Warriors + Pulhams

[DD12]

I'm surprised to discover that the Worcester Warriors team coach is provided by Pulhams of Bourton on the Water, Gloucestershire -- -- that's quite a distance away !

But they don't do the Gloucester Team coach, that's done by Bennetts Coaches!

I don't expect any more local operator want's to be associated with their consistent underachievement!

I think Astons coaches contract to provide team travel was terminated after the Worcester warriors VIP team coach caught fire back in 2013 (feels like a long time ago now!)

And tbh bennetts coaches also provided the team coach for Hereford Fc

[MattW]

I think Yeomans did the Hereford coach at one time, although I assume that was before they went bankrupt. Hereford that is, not Yeomans.

While on the subject of Pulhams, and as Mercedes Citaros are a hot topic elsewhere on this forum...

Pulhams operate Service 99 between Gloucester and Cheltenham, calling at various hospitals on the route, much like Service 303 used to be between Worcester and Kidderminster. The service is operated as part of a contract from the NHS.

They are using four (maybe more, that's all I've seen) high-spec Mercedes Citaro buses for the contract. They look like very nice vehicles, and someone clearly has good attention to detail as the registration numbers for the four vehicles are K99NHS, L99NHS, M99NHS and N99NHS.

I don't know much about Pulhams but their fleet, coaches and buses, always seems to be very well kept. It would be interesting to compare their Citaros with the Worcester examples as described by TimBrown.
