.... so the Wendys have got auto promotion and are having a "civic ceremomy" at the Town hall" tommorow (Wed ) - so what bus will they be using ? - Hopefully they , or SYTM have had words , and will be using the open -top Olympian from Aldwalke  ? If not , (cos its red!) can someone at SYTM get in touch with Brammall Lane to arrrange its hire when The Blades get promotion in a couple of weeks time !? - Got to be good for publicity !? ...and then of course there is the opening of the new Rotherham ground in August where the Oly could be required !? |

Often using open toppers for this type of work does not give the owners or operators of the bus any publicity what so ever as they are covered in adverts for the club or promoters . Indeed i remember one local parade was late as the police wouldnt allow the bus to leave as they had covered the side windows of the cab and the mirros with advertising material ! |

...aah but the Oly has the South Yorkshire Transport Museum as a "fleetname" in the correct place , (just below the lower deck windows ) so banners are usually hung from the top deck ?
I know it may not be seen by cameras , but all the passing public/supporters should see the name if close enough !?

I understand there is no parade , just an appearance on the town hall balcony .
