Dordt in Stoom 2022
Dordt in Stoom is het grootste driedaagse stoomevenement van Europa, dat om het jaar plaatsvindt in de binnenstad van Dordrecht. Elke keer komen er ongeveer 250.000 bezoekers af op allerlei stoommachines, zoals stoomschepen, stoomtreinen, stoomcarrousels, stoomwalsen, stoomtractoren en dergelijke. Ook reden er busdiensten met veteraanbussen.

I have so many shots from the Pima Air Museum I think people might be getting tired of seeing them. Will refrain from posting them for a while.

Walkers, Anderton, Volvo B58 Plaxton Supreme IV UTF 119, ex MGD 941V, seen on the Embankment in June, 1994. It was new to Crawford, Neilston.
55-0668 : Convair TB-58A Hustler : USAF
A very sad looking Hustler from the initial production batch.
Remarkably, it escaped MASDC and has featured in several museums from 1982 to the present day - and looks splendid!.

The M240i features a 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder gasoline engine (B58) with turbocharged power. It produces 374 hp (275 kW) and a maximum torque of 500 Nm. The engine is known for its power and efficiency.
This aircraft is in my top 3 of all time. I have numerous post of it in my photostream, if I could go back in time and pilot one this would be in the running.

Amsterdam 17-03-1979. Wallace Arnold, Leeds XWX 197S, Volvo B58-56 / Plaxton Supreme new in April 1978.
Alexander M type bodied Volvo B58 - new to Western SMT as their V536. In the years after NBC privatization many companies pulled out of Nat Ex work and were replaced by a motley collection of independents. Looking rather the worse for wear this B58 was operating for Aquitaine Travel of Northwich who ran an assortment of coaches on Nat Ex work in 1980s many of which only had relatively short lives with them including this one which was here for only 8 months.
Just found this orphaned scan, which was the last one of a batch that I had uploaded over 2 years ago ! I think it was worth the wait ....
This was the first of four Volvo B58s that Alan Goodwin bought from Harris of Grays in the mid-1980s, but while the others had Plaxton Elite or Supreme bodies, this one was an altogether different beast ! JVW 426N was the first UK B58 to receive a Van Hool body, and indeed the first by any foreign coachbuilder, and it would be over three years until the next B58 / Van Hool entered service. It was also unusual in having had its chassis extended from 11 metres to 12 metres prior to bodying, but the resultant coach still only had 49 seats, and plenty of legroom.
It had a near 18-month stay here, a long time by Goodwin standards, but Alan liked his unusual vehicles, and it was well-regarded here. But money talks, and a good offer for it from Jack Waddell saw it making its way up to Lochwinnoch in Renfrewshire in October 1984, and it saw out its next 10 years with various operators in Scotland. It ended up being broken up in Prentice Westwood's scrapyard.
Adswood Road depot, Stockport, 4 July 1984.
A chance encounter whilst waiting for the deckers to emerge for the afternoon school runs, their preserved Volvo B58 made an appearance, being turned in the road to head up to the top yard!!
LHE601W catches the afternoon sun with a yard shunt up the end of the Johnsons garage. This was new to them forty years ago, being delivered in May 1981!!
Arriving at the old Turner's coach park, where it would quickly become buried and inaccessible for any more photos, is a rare bird with Ron Lyles, one of the 8 Volvo B58 / M-types delivered to Western SMT in 1975. These were originally built with hinged manual doors, but they were converted later in their SBG life to "express" doors to enable them to be used on more general duties. This was was originally 2537 (HSD 708N).
Lyles had it for a couple of years, then it moved locally to Four Seasons Coaches in Leeds.
1977 Volvo B58-61 Duple C57F
This operator has long had a pechant for confusing bus spotters by re-registering its vehicles with random marks from a series issued in Brighton in 1961, none of which were originally carried by PSVs but coincided with the owner's initials. Many including this one have been transferred to new vehicles on acquisition and are still in use.
From the body style I conclude that this was originally registered CCW936S, new to Battersby, Morecambe,
NS B58 has just taken 111 BNSF system hoppers up to the big elevator in Ottawa Lake, MI and is heading back towards Toledo Yard as light power with a pair of CSX units. In years of living along the Clinton it's been pretty rare to see anything other than NS power on this line, especially in more recent years. By time they were coming back it was dusk and a couple flashes helped brighten up the scene as they cross Secor Rd by the University of Toledo campus. Toledo, OH 7/22/2020
Western SMT HSD 707N a Volvo B58 with Alexander M type body is seen parked up in the former Dundas Street Bus Station in Glasgow in between its Scottish Citylink duties during January 1984.

I can't now think why I made the diversion via Edgeley Park on my way home from Manchester, as it really wasn't on my route ! I can only think that maybe I had seen this earlier in the day, making its way to the Stockport County ground for their match that afternoon, and decided to try to find it while the match was on, and the side streets would be quiet.
Anyway, job done, and I got it - I had a pretty decent record of bumping into the 14 Volvo B58s with Irizar Urko bodies that were imported from 1979 to 1981, but this one, the first of them, had so far avoided me. New to Trathens of Yelverton, it spent its first 10 years with Devon operators, where it continued to avoid me after this encounter, but later made its way to Scotland, where I had more luck with it. More of that another day ....
Edgeley Park, Stockport 14/11/84
Another day, another livery - Western SMT were more frequent visitors to Chorlton Street than Alexander Northern, but more often with Y-types if I recall. Western had a batch of 8 M-types on Volvo B58 chassis, the only ones of this combination. 2539 turned up one day in this version of Rapide livery, which was certainly different, but I am not sure it was all that attractive. How many more were there in this scheme, and how long did it last ?
Still, it was better than what was to come - it would spend its final years in Stevenson's of Uttoxeter yellow !

Amsterdam 05-05-1979. Trathens of Yelverton SDR 445T, Volvo B58-61 / Duple Dominant new in March that year.
Back in the early '70s when European built buses and coaches were generally only seen on incoming tours, Volvo dipped its toe in the waters of the British market. I guess to reinforce a potential wish to be involved in both bus and coach provision, it specified Alexander's tried and tested 'Y Type' bodywork for the demonstration vehicle. Here at an unknown location, photographed by Clem Smith, is BUS 653K on hire to Grey Green working the 'Essex Coast Express'.
You'd have to have lived in some form of splendid isolation for the past fifty years to not know just how successful Volvo were in gaining a foothold hereabouts.
BUS 653K was later re-bodied in more coach like form by Van Hool. I'm not sure if it still survives, but at one time it was hoped that it might have been taken back under the wing of the manufacturer or dealer to be restored based on its significance.
