By comparison with the rather 'down at heels' Bristol L, this ECW-bodied Bristol LS is positively sparkling in the attractive pale blue-grey and maroon Tilcon livery, which was a common sight on Foden tipper trucks across the north of England from the 1970s into the early 1990s and perhaps a little longer. When United started to dispose of its Bristol LS buses in the early 1970s, some contractors took the opportunity to replace older Bristol L buses with the newer, underfloor-engined model.

This started out as a grotty lumpy old Westward kit, but after removing half a ton of old metal by filing down the window pillars to something more realistic, its taken on an entirely different role, as downgraded to bus use. This pic shows the jack knife bus doors I was fabricating for it. I've also since rebuilt the front blind box to something more realistic.

With George and Candy Pitarys stopping by this past Thursday naturally I had to take them out to railfan NS. Here's #167 at Waddy, Ky on Thursday, November 3, 2022.
#172 from Thursday, at Falconer Road (South Wye). This was my first time to shoot the 4000 and at the top of my list was a nice HOT shot, or two. Having missed that shot at South Fork (Grrrr, I was there and left) I did get it here. At least it meets my standards. I could get use to that blue real easy!
Escanaba & Lake Superior RR SD9 #1224 works at Stiles Jct., WI back in Feb. 2003. The historic depot that once stood here is now just a pile of rotted wood. Not sure if the 1224 is still in operation.
