Aldenham Bus Overhaul Works
This looks pretty horrific and - as someone helpfully advised when I posted a different view of this bus a while back - was the result of colliding with a shop front. It would be difficult to imagine an RM looking as badly damaged as this DMS but it`s not a fair comparison when a front engine vehicle offers a little more `impact protection` than the relative empty space at the front of a DMS. Picture taken on 18 February 1983. With no realistic prospect of repair, DMS 2415 went for scrap.
