Bus and Coach Photos

I used to drive this coach for a living when working for Bexleyheath transport, which if my memory serves me right would have been in the late seventies early eighties

The style of the body work is quite like that used on the old commer Mr softey ice cream vans from the 60's even the orange rooflights and front screens are the same

I'm sure the owner I was talking to said he just lives at Stanley near metro centre not far from Newcastle. I would have liked to have had a look in side at the interior how it was done, maybe next time I go to metro centre or other places and if there will have look hope fully. I like the j2 Bedford Embassy the best of all of the Plaxtons coaches. I would love to own one, my dad used to work and make them at Plaxtons a lot of years ago.

I think strictly speaking this is a KARRIER. I believe it was new to Abbotts of Blackpool - they had several coaches with registrations PFR7x7.
