Mitcham Belle ceased bus operation in September 2004, the vehicles and services passing to Centra, a division of Central Parking. Coaching activities continue.
|
Mitcham Belle started London operations on the 10th April 1999 with the acquisition of route 127. A year later they picked up the 200 and 201 from London General, on which this 10-metre Dart SLF with Plaxton Pointer 2 dual door bodywork, T159OGC, is seen on the South Circular.
|
Later purchases of Darts for services in the Wimbledon area had Caetano Nimbus bodies, like this one, KW51BFP, on the 152, appropriately in Mitcham. The livery was also modified at this stage to comply with "Red Ken" edicts.
|
This Caetano Dart is seen in Wimbledon town centre in May 2003. |
A small batch of Optare Solos was acquired for the K5 into Kingston. Solo KX51UCV is seen in March 2004 on route to Ham, again in Mitcham.
