Back to a different era. This AEC Regal has Duple coachwork. The colours may look Tilling, but in fact
are based on the ownership of Red & White of South Wales, whose operations in Oxford - as South Midland
- were transfererd to Thames Valley in the early fifties.

South Midland 805 (PRX931) was one of 15 similar
ECW coach bodied Bristol MW6Gs delivered between 1958 and 1961, whilst the fleet was in Thames
Valley ownership. Some were 38 seaters, but most were more comfortably turned out as 34 seaters
for the well established tour programme.
