AMPM Volvo Olympian / Northern Counties Palatine L557YCU in Witton on the outer circle.

It was recently acquired at the time, having been recently re-sprayed and not yet been fitted with LED display. Both this and L561YCU have since left the AMPM fleet.

These Olympians added a nice variety to the outer circle, breaking the monotony of the TWM Gemini allocation on the route.
