Viking Coaches 82HBC
Bearing the registration of a former Leicester Titan once owned by Stevensons, is this Van Hool bodied Volvo B10M in Viking livery. Though the picture was taken when in Arriva ownership at the end of 1999, Viking Coaches of Burton was acquired by Stevensons some years earlier and developed as the major coach arm of the then Peddle-owned empire in the West Midlands. The coach is seen at a hotel on the edge of Amsterdam, about twenty minutes tram ride from the Centre.
 
Viking Coaches 429UFM
Not so far away, this identical vehicle, bearing former Crosville registration 429UFM, is seen leaving the Millennium Dome early after an exciting day trip.
 
Viking Coaches 585LON
After taking over Viking Coaches of Burton, Stevensons concentrated its coaching activities under that fleet name with the rather somber two tone grey colours. Fleet number 3 (585LON) is a Volvo B10M with Paramount 3200 coachwork, promoting the company at the 1998 Avon Rally at the Helicopter Museum near Weston-super-Mare. Alongside is a conventional Spectra of Wilts & Dorset.
