Seen in Northampton (not Durham as the shop behind might suggest!) is one of the early Stagecoach standards - an Alexander Dash bodied Dennis Dart.
|
Dart 458 (S458CVV) was the next incarnation of the Dennis/Alexander singledeck, seen here in company with a V-registered example, leaving Northampton Bus Station. The vehicle has ALX200 bodywork on the low floor Dart SLF chassis. The buses sport Stagecoach's "Lo-liner" branding.
|
Volvo Olympian 690 (P690JBD) was one of many doubledeckers resting in Greyfriars, Northampton, on a Saturday: their extra capacity, normally used for school work, redundant. The extra bay amidships in the Alexander body shows this to be a long wheelbase Olympian, contrasting with earlier 626.
|
Stagecoach United Counties 609 (ARP609X), one of the members of the first batch of Olympians, delivered to then United Counties in NBC green and white is seen at Showbus 1999. This vehicle has ECW bodywork and was laid up behind 690 when the photo of that bus was taken.
|
Popular with many Stagecoach subsidiaries were these ex Ministry of Defence Wadham Stringer bodied Renault/Dodges. United Counties was amongst the first to try them out and the re-registered E32RVV was shown at Showbus 1998.
