Anybody remember the Bristol VR ?

This particular bus is owned by the Cardiff Transport Preservation Group. It was photographed by myself at Porth Depot in March 2016. It had just been for its annual MOT.

A service that ran its last in 2009 was the 'Trossachs Trundler", latterly run with less-historic buses than this lovely Bedford OB, long-owned by Vista ..

Re: Buses

Swansea are withdrawing them soon. They are double manned, driver and conductor. The fuel consumption is appalling. I've been told it's below 5mpg. There is also the fare dodging issue, particularly on a loaded bus.

The money it cost the council to dig up roads in the first place to make room for them was appaling

Re: Buses

saw one of the old Red double decker buses - with the open entrance at the back (old London type) - being used for wedding guests a few weeks back. Great to see, and I could even see the old Indicater switch - the big orange 'dial' affair in the cab......used to think this was some sort of oil cap
