Derrick Ball, St. Helens - Bevan Price - 02/03/2020 20:18

Not seen this anywhere else, but Roy Johnson told me today that coach operator Derrick Ball ceased operations in January 2020, the owner deciding to retire. At least half the fleet went for scrap, no purchasers being interested in some elderly, but mostly well-kept coaches.

Yes I had spend many hrs chatting to him due to losing Rail replacement work as it was core work for him it was a good time.
