Visiting VR.

In the days when we were a bus operator, occasionally we'd take in outside work to supplement our meagre income. The first Bristol VR with which we were to become acquainted was this new to Crosville, ex North Western example, RMA 437V. I never quite knew what to make of this livery, whilst I did eventually come round to liking the similar scheme used by PMT, I always considered there to be too many contrasting colours here. I can't recall what became of this bus afterwards, or indeed if it was the one which expired on me with diff failure whilst in a traffic jam on the M60.

To the rear of the VR is our AEC Reliance Plaxton Derwent, CYA 181J being prepared for service.
