IAN'S BUS STOP: LONDON's Volvo Olympians

The London Sovereign Volvo Olympians

This page created 7th March 2007. by Ian Smith

Bus histories, 53-64 (with gaps)

These histories are far from complete. They are being assembled as I gather information from a variety of sources (that don't always agree with each other).

Particularly useful have been:

Company transfers from Buses magazine, LOTS
Late ownerships from Busspotter
