Dou you know if this Cleveland Transit bus is still here? A sister bus to this (RDC106R) is under restoration by the 500 Group on Teesside. Also this yard is thought to have recieved another Cleveland Transit bus for breaking. This one being the unusual single deck re-body KXG372L, last recorded with White Ribbon Coaches of East Kilbride around 2000.

Don't want to be picky but 324 is a true Lowland vehicle (despite the Bannockburn depot code it only operated from there for about 6 months and then returned to Galashiels where it had been since 1983, by that time though the use of depot codes was discontinued and so Bn remained). The other vehicle was at Musselburgh but came to the company through Ian Glass in 1991 and remained in East Lothian. Latterly A12SMT but new as B267KPF. Awww.

The H...LOM Scania's were new to West Midlands Travel - there were 40 in the range H201-247LOM, with the 7 missing registrations being withheld from normal issue by the DVLA. The Busways examples were H421-430BNL

H246 LOM has now ended up with First Glasgow, and there are probably others since they seem to be on a "buy up as many odd deckers as possible" drive at the moment.

This bus was new to Jones, Logon as D727GDE. It passed to Yorkshire Rider from whom it was acquired by Bullock, Cheadle, Manchester who re-registered it with the registration shown (JIL8206). Glad to see it again as I used to drive it for Bullock in Manchester regular on service 157.

Oh my goodness *cough* *splutter*. This is the first time i've seen my most hated vehicle in the First Glasgow fleet on the heap. Had it a decent gearbox that allowed it to go above 30MPH then it would have been a fantastic power horse but sadly it didn't.

Hello, I'm in desperate need of finding a scrapped/old bus in the south west. (preferrably either devon or cornwall but will travel further north) I need it for a fashion shoot so must be in a state where able to walk around inside. If you know of any it would be great if you could let me know where to find one. Thanks! Hilary Orchard

This is not T29, this is an early Titan i will give you that but a single door one (because of the positioning of the Stagecoach logo) this could well be T246 EYE246V was transferred from Western to Bluebird hence the no division logo i dont think they care much up there!. so i would check it out, as i say an early one Park Royal bodied i would say between T1-T250 and the only one up East Scotland way as old as that was ex Western T246.
