Chiltern Queens Reliance
Before I leave the subject of retrospective colourisations, here's another fairly recent offering. This one shows 478 FCG, a Park Royal bodied AEC Reliance from the late lamented Chiltern Queens fleet which had been new fairly locally to Aldershot and District as a coach. By the time of my photo, circa 1979/80 it had obviously had bus seats substituted, but by then I suspect, its tramping days were over.
The original photo was taken at the 'Reading Stations' terminal and one of the Corporation's new fangled Metropolitan double deckers makes a cameo appearance.
