Seen at the 1998 Bristol rally was Cheltenham District 1003 (KHW309E) was another conversion to dual door for one man operation and would have been painted like 1077. Cheltenham's fleet was already non standard in its use of dark red as opposed to the more conventional Tilling red or green. Both RE buses were originally single door and dark red all over with a single cream waistband. This one had been preserved by the Stroud RE Group in its final poppy red livery, which was adopted for the whole Cheltenham fleet in NBC days.

 An interesting trio of Bristol/ECW buses at a rally in the eighties. Nearest the camera is Crosville Lodekka FLF6B DFB111 (144YFM). In the middle is one of Cardiff Bus' VRTSL6G models and on the end is one of the two Cheltenham District highbridge KSW6G buses which amaxingly got painted into NBC poppy red. It is either 8560 or 8561 (UHY374/5).
