 Seen in a line up of Leyland Nationals at SHOWBUS in 2002 is former United Counties 587 (SVV587W) then with Andrews of Shefield, part of the Traction Group of companies. The bus is pictured in service with United Counties in the Pre Stagecoach livery gallery.

National 2, 582 (NRP582V) saw further service with another Traction Group subsidiary, Barnsley & District. The bus is seen in Sheffield's main bus station.

 Former Stagecoach United Counties 712 (K712ASC). This bus passed to Julian Peddle's Huntingdon & District along with MK Metro, when Stagecoach was forced by the Monopolies and Mergers Commission to divest itself of these two operations. This followed on from their acquisition of the neighbouring Cambus operation alongside UC. Whilst Julian initially retained MK Metro, he later sold H&D to Blazefield Holdings. Olympian 712 is seen in their 'corporate livery' on a private hire at the M11 service area near Stanstead. The operation passed on further to Cambridgeshire independent, Cavalier, but retained its separate identity before ending up where it started, back with Stagecoach! |

 Sent in the opposite direction was former London commuter coach 180 (R180DNH) seen heading for Bristol in Gloucester in the service of Stagecoach in Wales in March 2011, the coach has Stagecoach national fleet number 52480. |
