Excel-ling - 7

A wet day in June 2009 sees EST of Llandow's rather ungainly looking 10m Optare Excel R88 MMS waiting time at Llantwit Major Bus Station when operating Service X45 (Llantwit Major-St Athan-Rhoose-Barry-Dinas Powys-Cardiff).

 

She was new to Merseypride of Bootle as R633 DNH, who then undertook the re-registration, and subsequently became a Dawson Rentals vehicle, operating for several companies including Truronian, Pete's Travel, Flights of Birmingham, Arriva Scotland West and Thorpe of Wembley before arriving with EST. She was still in the fleet in 2011 but I don't know her fate.
