An excellent trio of ex London Titans at SHOWBUS all in subtle different variations of the liveries worn whilst in London service. In the same field was Stagecoach's T1, probably making its last appearance under the Stagecoach name with ownership of the East London fleet about to pass to Macquarie Bank.

The Colchester Park & Ride Omnicity was accompanied by one of a further batch of deliveries of the model to First PMT: 65040 (YN06WMO). Alongside is one of the recent Volvo B7TLs with Wright Eclipse Gemini bodywork for London. VNW32663 (LK55AAU) sadly lacks the cheery yellow windowscreen surround, yellow and white willow leaf side embellishments and has to make do with impoverished blinds. All this in such amazing contrast to the provincial First vehicles with virtually every bus with comprehensive digital blinds and bold route branding extended all over the bus.

A late entrant at the event was this recent Transdev delivery for London, one of several Scania deckers with East Lancs bodywork on which the former London United fleet has standardised of late..

Another last minute entry from Go-Ahead subsidiary Metrobus was this newly delivered Dennis Dart with the new East Lancs Esteem body, 232 (PO56JFG).
