OOT261M Blagdon Lioness Coaches

Bedford SB5 / Duple C41F new August 1973 , acquired by Blagdon Lioness Coaches Ltd in March 1976 from Corp , Fair Oak. It is in Butcombe working the return journey on the Thursday bus service from Blagdon to Bristol. When it was first acquired it had a red roof as well , but Terry Lyons repainted it cream , as he thought that the red paint would fade. However the lower panels remained red throughout its time with Blagdon Lioness , never receiving their pale blue livery.

OOT261M was sold around May 1982 to House , Hilton , Dorset.
