ABus Bristol VRTSL3 ECW XHK221X
Painted to celebrate 100 years of Bristol Commercial Vehicles in 2008, former Eastern National 3116 (XHK221X) was still so decorated at the Bristol Bus Rally in August 2013. Abus is a keen Bristol operator acquiring the bus from Badgerline in 2002 with whom it had been since 1992 as 5562. The ECW bodied VRTSL3 even had a spell with Thamesway before heading west. It had actually been ordered for Southdown.
 
 
Abus Bristol RELL6L ECW OAE954M
Another Abus Bristol - seen at the Brislington Bristol Rally in August 2015 - was the ECW bodied Bristol RELL6L, former Bristol Omnibus 1332 (OAE954M) seen earlier with Optare Spectra YG02FWB. Here it is with former stablemates from previous times, Bristol MW5G 2969 (981EHY) and L6B 2388 (LHT911), both with ECW bodies, of course.
