Country bus.
Another photo to help blow away the myth that I never photographed 'lightweights'! This one looked so tidy, that even I couldn't resist it. The little Plaxton Panorama Elite bodied Bedford YRQ belonged to the unusually titled NCB motors of Wem, Shropshire... who were nothing to do with the Coal Board. I'm not quite sure as to what kind of work the coach was engaged on at the time, but the picture was taken on a market day at Market Drayton, Shropshire in 1986, by which time coaches like JJU 462N were becoming the exception rather than the rule.
