 For a first time entrant, Step 1 Travel of Horncastle did not do things by halves: they brought along their entire fleet. Most of the fleet comprises Mercedes minibuses of various sizes, seen here arriving at SHOWBUS and led by 2 (FX54GZW), a 15 seat Sprinter 311CDI.
|
Seen later parked together on display, the two full size coaches in the fleet are DAF SB3000 Van Hools, 7 (F1PMH) and 9 (F9PMH).
|
 London Dial-A-Ride 7077 (YX09ETO) is one of the latest additions to the fleet. The bus has a body by Bluebird, but is believed to be based on Volkswagen running units.
|
From Staffordshire's Midland Classic fleet is this Optare MetroRider which was new to Jones' Shamrock fleet in Pontypridd.
|
The Aylesbury based Red Line fleet has expanded considerably of late. This ex East Yorkshire Mercedes Vario/Beaver 2 substituted at the last minute for an ex Armchair all Leyland Olympian, which should have been in the BUSES60 display for 1991. Parking Reception was able to make a last minute substitution and locate the Merc in the minibus area.
