Once part of London Country, County became a London component of Arriva, trading as
Arriva serving East Herts & Essex and administered by Arriva serving the Shires, based at Luton.
Both companies moved on to using Arriva serving the Shires & Essex as a trading name, or, more simply,
Arriva.

Dart / Pointers at Upminster Station, sporting the trading name Thames-Side.

Another pair of Darts, this time the leading vehicle
sports 'Town-link' fleetnames, whilst a freshly painted Arriva liveried vehicle is parked behind at
Harlow depot .

 A reversion of Green Line style, perhaps? Back to the bus oriented RF and National era,
following a generation or two of coach bodied Tigers and B10Ms. Arriva subsidiary County chose low-floor DAFs
with new Plaxton (Northern Counties designed) Prestige bodies, ample luggage space and comfort seating for the
arduous North London orbital service 724 to Heathrow, where R206VPU is seen.

A sister vehicle from the same batch is seen at Watford Junction Station one Saturday before
Christmas 1998. The DAFs were replaced by Mercedes Citaros in 2006.
