The bus is seen next at Milton Keynes Bus Station on a gloomy afternoon probably being used for the late afternoon crew exchanges on the six buses working the city routes and possibly using the occasion for some driver training. Working the Sunday services along with one of the former South Yorkshire PTE MCW bodied Leyland Fleetline DMS lookalikes is ex London DMS 162 (OJD209R) seen on the left.

Red Rover Optare City Pacer C555LMW & AEC Renown Weymann 127
As the nearside hand painted ads on 127 show, associated Keith Garages, was the local Audi and VW dealer, so unsurprisingly Red Rover acquired three of the Volkswagen LT based Optare City Pacer 25 seat stylish minibuses for new services started at deregulation in October 1986. The three were not ready in time so Optare lent a couple of demonstrators in the meantime of which C555LMW was one. The other was in a less appropriate blue livery. They were primarily used on Tring to Chesham services 94 and 49 as well as 27, the Tring town service, but were used on services across the network, where appropriate.
