An interesting mix of green LHs comprised Eastern National 1103 (UVX7S), one of a select few with this operator, followed by one of many with Lincolnshire in NBC livery - 1056 (XFW851S) and, in a seemingly different interpretation of NBC leaf green, London Country BN50 (GPD318N). The differing greens are thought to reflect the actual liveries worn in service and not an error on the part of the dedicated restorers. | |||||||

Brian Heginbotham's 1975 Bristol LH6L has a special build narrow Plaxton Supreme body and is restored in the livery of National Travel South West. It was originally Eastern NationalGreenslades 326 (JFJ506N). Alongside in the rich colours of York Pullman is a shorter LHS6L, PHL454R, new to Ulph of Rotherham. | |||||||

A different angle reveals the ongoing line up of MW coaches with further examples from Eastern National - 392 (OWC182D) and Crosville CMG561 (HFM561D). | |||||||
