Stagecoach stripes made a big impact on the X38 linking Exeter and Plymouth when full sized coaches (B10M/Plaxtons) joined the fleet shortly after acquisition by Stagecoach. One of the fleet is seen here at the Plymouth Bretonside terminus. Later operations included use of some of Stagecoach's articulated coaches.
