Turning Short
Bristol Joint Services C7027, 822 MHW, a 70-seat 1962 Bristol FLF6B, turns at Zetland Road Junction, Bristol, June 9th 1972, an unlikely terminal point for cross city service 12, being only a mile or so from the central area. Of note is that the driver has set the destination numeral "linens" to the correct display of "12L", the use of the suffix "L" being described in the current company timetable as indicating a "journey of a local nature", such as a service that is turning short of it's final destination. The letter "C" was used for a cross city service that was terminating, instead, at the city centre.
