I'm looking for some information about an operator called Ambassador Travel who aparrantley ran competing services to First within the Bristol area.

Does anyone have any idea what services this company operated? The years the company was active and what type of vehicles they used? Or just any general information about the company.

They started sometime before March 1993 and finished on 12th July 1994. They competed with Badgerline and Cityline, First didnt exist until 1995.

A Google search will find pictures of their VRs on Rob Sly's site and Flickr.

Other than the VRs they operated some Nationals and a Volvo Alisa (JOV762P), all in the same Green livery, from a yard next to Cityline at Lawrence Hill (the site of the old Lawrence Hill goods yard).
