Bristol 1998
The leaflet from Rubicon Travel for the Bristol City Tour run by an open top FLF in 1998. The vehicle was 841 SHW see bcv.robsly.com/841shw.html . It has only had two owners but has proved significant. The bus served Bristol Omnibus between 1964 and 1982. in 1976 they undertook the open top conversion. The bus was bought by David Hoare in 1982 for the West of England Transport Collection. Under their auspices it was contracted to operate the Bristol tour from 1994 (previous leaflet) to 1999. Next year in this livery it was working for Mac Tours in Edinburgh (look forwards). It did this to 2003 and so the "red/cream" linkage was established.
