Three VRs, all with curved screens and 'unusual liveries' at EFE Showbus 1999.
First, in patriotic red, white and blue, is
Hampshire Bus 3315, then winning best local authority bus from the London Borough of Redbridge,
former Maidstone & District 5885 and still in United Counties deregulation livery, preserved 794.

Blenheim Palace is a popular out of Oxford tourist destination and a pleasant country drive, particularly from
the top deck of an open topper. This ex Maidstone VR is dedicated to the service.
|
Cedar Coaches of Bedford acquired MCW Metrobus 2 5201 (A201OKJ), part of the batch which took
part in the NBC trials of doubldeckers with M&D. Other participants were the Volvo Ailsa and Dennis
Dominator. 5201 is on display at Millennium Showbus.

D207MKK is one of a number of interesting high capacity East Lancs bodied Scanias originally delivered
to Maidstone Borough Council. This singledecker found its way to Prestwood via Seamarks at Luton
who used it primarily to cope with school loads on the 88 Luton - Stevenage service.
|
Maidstone Corporation went from attractive Massey bodied Leyland Titan PD2As to imposing
but plain Massey bodied Atlanteans. 46 (OKM146G) is seen in here with Stevensons of
Uttoxeter, before it too joined the Arriva ranks.
