Seen In Bedford is 628 (F628MSL), one of the first of many Alexander bodied high capacity Leyland Olympians that flooded into the Stagecoach United Counties fleet in its early days, displacing elderly Bristols. Note the plain blue UNITED COUNTIES fleetnames. |

A huge Tina Turner concert planned at Woburn Abbey had a major transport operation to go with it. Buses from Red Rose (their Willowbrook Warrior Q-registered Bedford is seen on the left), United Counties and Buffalo Travel (assorted doubledeckers) are seen awaiting passengers at Bletchley Station. Sadly that was what they spent most of the day doing as the concert was a flop. Note the early deregulation "tyre tred" style fleetname in use on the Alexander bodied Olympian in the picture. |
