I'm such a sucker for standard cabs sitting on the siding..
The Teague local crew was close to outlawing, so the dispatcher had them tie down on the Flynn siding.

Took about 10 minutes to gather all this rubbish from one small area. Yep, some people around here don't care about anyone but themselves. The kind of people who make the world a worse place.
The oft’ photographed apron area of Exeter’s Paris St. bus station is the setting for this shot of a Park Royal bodied Guy Arab IV about to set off on the six mile journey out west to Heath Cross via Whitestone.
UFJ296 was new in 1957 to Exeter Corporation, one of five identical Gardner 6LW powered vehicles (UFJ295-9).
Delivered concurrently were four similar chassis’ with bodies by Massey (UFJ291-4). These nine vehicles were numbered 51-59 by the Corporation.
In April 1970 (following year long negotiations with a City Council concerned with continual losses) all nine, together with all services & assets of the Corporation, were absorbed into the BET group in the guise of Devon General.
They were renumbered by DG to 251-59.
By the following January only four, Nos.251/3/9 and this one, had survived to enter the fleet of Western National, which had assumed control of Devon General, and during the next year Nos.251 & 299 were also withdrawn.
No.253 was repainted into poppy red in 1978 and carried that livery until withdrawal in 1980. It can be seen here; www.flickr.com/photos/ricardo4eyes/401948246/ and after withdrawal here; www.flickr.com/photos/kevin-staddon/2370428701/
As for the bus shown here, it also saw service with WN until 1980, latterly as a driver trainer, retaining its green & cream livery throughout.
Happily it survives in preservation today ( www.flickr.com/photos/didbygraham/190868519/ ), one of four Exeter Corporation Arabs still extant, the others being
TFJ808 ( www.flickr.com/photos/ricardo4eyes/2360482327/ ),

& 974AFJ ( www.flickr.com/photos/ricardo4eyes/424407905/ ).
This picture can be dated to shortly after the Devon General takeover as, although retaining its City of Exeter fleet number and municipal crest, it is operating a DG numbered service as opposed to one of the lettered City services of the Corporation.
