Mini Supreme

This delightful little coach was spotted in the temporary car park next to Ropley Station, home of the Watercress/Mid-Hants preserved railway in May 2014. Bedford CFL / Plaxton Mini Supreme C17F CNR274T 'Bubbles' was there among hundreds of cars whose owners had taken the opportunity to park for a fiver then catch a free train ride to nearby Alresford for the annual Watercress Festival. It was an extremely popular thing to do with overcrowded trains departing every 20 minutes throughout the day. One steam-hauled, one diesel-hauled, and a 'Thumper' worked the service.
