 Oxfordshire independent Charlton Services had a pair of former South Wales AEC Regent V buses. This Weymann bodied example, former 447 (MCY407), was new in 1955 and is seen here with another AEC, ex Barton Harrington bodied Reliance 988 (988VRR) and a cute Duple Midland bodied Bedford, 5559FD.
|
 Also seen at the depot on the same day was 1961 forward entrance Willowbrook bodied YCY804, formerly South Wales 551.
|
 Smiths Luxury Coaches of Reading had a pair of South Wales Weymann bodied AEC Regent V deckers for school transport. They retained South Wales red, unrelieved, whereas the former London Transport RT buses that they replaced gained Smith's blue and orange livery. Nearest the camera is former 443 (MCY403).
|
 More modern vehicles sold on include this Volvo B7R 20370 (CV55AGY) which was one of a batch from Plaxton with wide front doors for wheelchair access. It is seen here in Glasgow in August 2014 having been transferred to First Scotland East. Picture ref A4795 |
 |
 An "instant" Green Line is 20373 (CV55ANP) of First Berkshire. The disabled access Plaxton Profile bodied Volvo B7R was transferred from First Cymru for use on the Berkshire Green Line routes and has had Green Line insignia added with little aesthetic appeal. The coach is seen in Buckingham Palace Road in June 2007. |
