Chard Bus station served as an outstation for a handful of Western National buses. Alder
Valley ECW bodied Bristol RELH 66 (KBL227L) on a private hire for Brunel University takes
a refreshment break alongside Western National Lodekka 2060 (BDV258C). The Lodekka is in the
"quick-fix" NBC livery of Tilling green and cream with cream NBC fleetnames. The bus and the
Chard services were originally with Southern National.
