<br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;">Michelle Wadsworth and Simon Weaver are to buy Tappins Coaches from Heyfordian Holdings on 30th September. Didcot-based Tappins operates a fleet of over 30 Volvo coaches and can trace its origins back to 1900. It has been operated as part of the Heyfordian group since 2007. All operations, engineering and driving staff are to remain, under the stewardship of General Manager David Walker.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;">In addition to its Newbury-based coach business, Weavaway trades as Countywide Travel in Basingstoke, Haywards Coaches in Reading, and Abingdon Coaches in Abingdon. Local bus services in West Berkshire and Hampshire are operated by sister company Newbury & District.</span><br />
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;">
<br />
‘The Tappins business is an excellent fit with our existing activities in South Oxfordshire. We have successfully developed the Abingdon Coaches brand, and the acquisition of Tappins will enable this part of the Weavaway business to operate from their Didcot site.’<br />
<br />
‘It is our intention to promote Tappins Coaches as an Oxford-based business, thereby avoiding brand conflict.’<br />
‘Our Weavaway Travel and Newbury & District businesses operate a total of 60 vehicles, and with the addition of Tappins the size of the overall operation most certainly warrants the type of facility which exists in Didcot.’<br />
<br />
A dozen Weavaway coaches will immediately transfer to Tappins, including late-model Skyliners, Van Hools, and high-capacity Iveco Panthers. Brand new coaches are expected to enter the Tappins fleet in early 2013.<br />
‘The acquisition of Tappins will see our catchment area stretch right across the Thames Valley from Witney to Winchester, and Hungerford to Henley.’<br />
<br />
A key aspect of the acquisition is the purpose-built site, which provides secure parking for 50 vehicles, large offices, a 6-bay workshop, bodyshop and coach wash.<br />
‘Heyfordian Holdings are to be congratulated for maintaining a state of the art facility of this high standard. We intend to build on this with investment in the future to ensure Tappins continuing reputation as a top quality operator in an area where it enjoys an excellent reputation’.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">GreenLine (Arriva) has just spent around <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 14px; text-align: left;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">£300,000 on </span><span style="line-height: 13.333333969116211px;">upgrading</span><span style="line-height: 14px;"> there 758 service with newer coaches </span><span style="line-height: 13.333333969116211px;">previously on Arriva's National Express service.

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">Linsey Frostick, Marketing Manager for Green Line Coaches, said: “With major sporting events taking place in and around the city this summer, there’s even more of a reason for people to be heading to London.</span><br style="line-height: 14px;" /><span style="line-height: 14px;">“Our upgraded coaches are a great way for people to get out and about, with the added benefits of free Wi-Fi, allowing passengers to access the internet, providing them with the perfect opportunity to look at their emails or carry out research, as they make their way into central London. By opting for coach travel, passengers are not only guaranteed a seat rather than having to stand in a packed train carriage, but great value journeys that also deliver excellent cost savings.”</span>
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 14px;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">The 758 route, which was a product of the deregulation of coach services, started on 26 September 1981 with AEC </span>
<em style="font-style: normal; line-height: 16px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><b> </b>Reliance</em> <span style="line-height: 14px;"> and today’s route remains virtually unchanged since the original launch. The route was the first Green Line service to serve housing estates and pick up commuters and was an immediate success. On the first day of operation, Nicholas Lyell QC, the then MP for Hemel Hempstead, travelled on the service along with 14 other people and after two weeks’ operation, the coaches were full.</span>

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">Green Line aim is to offers great links to London from across Luton and Hertfordshire providing customers with great value and significant savings against train travel at convenient times</span>

On Saturday 21st & Sunday 22nd the Coach displays coach driver of the year took place where coach drivers and company's would battle for many trophies . But the one that all the driver was the coach driver of the year trophie what would go to the driver who git around the course the with the least amount of penalties at the end .<br />
The weather for the day wasn't the best on Saturday but brightend up in the afternoon witch is probally why it had a poor turn out on the Saturday when i was there . this year the show played host to the new bus for london or ''borrismaster'' where theyparked it next to the original Routemaster as shown below .<br />

he ''borrismaster'' was open to have alook around which i did have a look and very plastic to be honest but worth a bash if i saw it in london but at least the seat were comfy that about all i can say is good about it also for some reason there two enviro 200 was entered one from Stevenson of Essex and one from Paul S Winston with probably the most impressive air horn to be fitted to a bus as shown below . there was also an array of vintage coaches as well as brand spanking new plaxton and vdl bova products on the trade stands to see photos of the day <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/49490214@N08/sets/72157629528031988/with/6959938106/">click here</a><br />
