Oh, I just took it from googleThat bus is the one that always drove (maybe still drives??) from Barnstaple to Exeter. I've been on it quite a few times.

Indeed, there were Volvo Olympian Palatine I on the Exeter/BNP runs. They're all withdrawn now thanks to DDA regs.Huh. I can really remember boarding those to and from Barnstaple though... maybe it was a Volvo Olympian Palatine...
I personally love both types of Olympian (Leyland and Volvo), as they are buses I used to travel on a lot, but I am going to give a slight edge over to the Volvo Olympian.
It Is a Northern Counties Plaxton Palatine, it does have similarites to a walter AlexanderThat's an Alexander body though?
All Olympians have to retire this year due to vehicle emission policies. They have been used for over 20 years already.Ah, a local operator who i get on well with are looking to import some of the Ex HK Volvo's
Well they have certainly exceeded the expirey, has the law changed In Hong Kong because I thought it was 17 years. Although they served the last portion of their legacy on the 88R which made me feel happy they had their lives extended for a little longerAll Olympians have to retire this year due to vehicle emission policies.
