GENERAL NOTES:
Protours (IOM) took over the Tours (Isle of Man) operations in late 2003 - For the purposes of last operator Protours & Tours have been combined as one fleet, however only the following coaches remain in the fleet from the latter operation - 6/18/20/32/47/50/68/70-72/1949/1950/1L and 4L

Where a number in Roman numerals is quoted after a registration number, this refers to the number of psv's to have carried this mark eg L111 MAN[iv] indicates it to be the fourth coach to be registered with that number.
