Another view of former Excelsior, Bournemouth, Volvo B10M-61 Van Hool Alizee F451 WFX, this time at the National Ploughing Championships on 23rd September, 2009. By now, it had crossed the Irish Sea and was operating for Michael Browne, Wexford, who appeared to have just the one full size coach. A Leyland Tiger was operated in the nineties but does anyone know what he was running in the intervening years?

Excelsior Brigade
70th, 71st, 72nd, 73rd & 74th
New York Volunteer Infantry Regiments
Daniel Sickles raised this brigade of five regiments early in 1861. The regiments were raised directly under the authority of War Department and included companies from New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Michigan. In December of 1861 they were redesignated as New York regiments and assigned their numbers.
Sickles commanded the brigade at Seven Pines and during the Seven Days battles. By the time of the Battle of Gettysburg he had been promoted to corps command, but the Excelsior Brigade would always be connected to its controversial commander.
The Excelsior Brigade was commanded at the Battle of Gettysburg by Colonel William R. Brewster of the 73rd New York. He was senior colonel of the brigade and took command after Brigadier General Joseph Revere was court-martialled and dismissed for withdrawing the brigade without orders after the Battle of Chancellorsville.

Not totally sure, but I think this received the XEL 14 plate when it entered service. If so, it left 5 years later as F99 AEL.
Any corrections welcome.

Fuji Sagres. I bought this bike at a garage sale. This is my first road bike as I purchased a new hybrid bike this past April as my first bike. I rode this Fuji 33 miles on it's 'shake down' voyage. I like speed--this bike is totally fun to ride!

For the 1987 season Excelsior took 24 Plaxton Paramounts to the then new Mark III design. This is D252 HFX one of 21 Volvo B10Ms. There were also three Bedford YNVs. Seen at the long-gone coach stop in Palk Street near Torquay harbour, when almost new. Palk Street in now pedestrianised and coaches fight to drop-off and pick-up amongst the service buses on the Strand. It's probably called progress. Brilliant! LOL!
