One or two people may have been wondering what Cedar Coaches ex-Scottish decker
was doing parked up with two Eastbourne buses: the vintage Lion and an Ikarus
bodied coach. Ever mindful of photo opportunities, the late entry of the Cedar
exhibit enabled us to pull off Leyland Lions from different generations to pose
side by side.

The beautifully preserved Lion won the Doyen singledeck award at SHOWBUS.

Another prize winner was Ipswich's recently acquired Alexander (Belfast) bodied
Olympian from across the Irish Sea. The bus has seen many years service in Dublin.
Ipswich and Eastbourne were both celebrating centenaries at SHOWBUS this year.
