John Brenson's Tiger TS7, North Western 380 (JA 5515), basks in the sunshine at Showbus 97.
The vehicle has Windover bodywork, which was widely popular in the immediate post-war period. TS7s
were no longer made in 1950, when this 1937 Tiger chassis was rebodied. The Model has also been captured by
EFE in their excellent series of models. |
This 1996 Northern Counties bodied Olympian 304
(N304CLV) journeyed down from Merseyside (Southport) to join the display at Showbus 97.
Part of the Mersey based MTL fleet, it is one of a recent batch of Olympian deckers, replacing
the once large fleet of Atlanteans in that area. Singledeckers have featured more in recent
deliveries to the area. |
New for 1999 are Marshall Citybus bodied Dennis Dart SLFs. This one is for the Southport fleet
and is seen in the Dennis line up at EFE Showbus 1999. |
Seen at the Scottish Vintage Bus Museum is former Chester City Guy Arab/Northern Counties 42 (XFM42G).
The AEC Regent alongside is not a Chester bus.
