Today RJ's of Wem Limted commenced operating their services are per their registrations using three buses.

Former GHA Coaches SK52UTT was used on the 64 Llangollen to Glyn Ceiriog and Llanarmon DC - PHOTO LINK 1

Former GHA Coaches R226HCD was used on the 146 Whitchurch to Wrexham which interfaces with the 34 Wrexham to Trevalyn - PHOTO LINK 2

Ex Filers Travel Ilfracombe Dart SJ53AWX was used on the 17 Moss and the 6 Ruabon Circular which interfaces. - PHOTO LINK 3


All three vehicles had legals for the company RJ's of Wem Ltd with the address of the operating centre as Castle Foregate Shrewsbury. Howevere an address for correspondence was given which is believed to be the home address of one of the Lloyd Davies brothers.

All assets of GHA Coaches Limited will have passed to the administrators with the directors having to buy them back if they want them with the administrators using the funds raised to pay GHA's debts to their creditors.

I agree but at one point it was understood that some vehicles belonged to a separate company, owned by the family and were in effect hired to GHA. Had this been the case they would not have needed to buy them from the auction, which is why I made the point

Has the 34 changed now to because today i noticed R226HCD heading outbound on the 34 to Trevalyn and it went via Plas Coch retail park then onto the A483/Mold Road Roundabout unfortunately did not see where it went after that.

From the timetable, it looks like it now operates a circular route, direct outwards from Wrexham to Trevalyn and then back via the normal route.

I passed baby dart SJ53 AWX today in Ruabon and noticed they've replaced the flip dot display with a very bright LED one. I don't know how long it's been like this for, as I don't see their vehicles very often.

Edit..Well here's a pic of it from last month with the new display

That bus doesn't look like it's fit to be on the road. They've not even put gaffer tape over the hole.
