Rarely were the RELH coaches duplicated, but these ECW bus body-style MW "coaches" sometimes found their way on to the London-Bristol corridor. This is Bristol MW6G 2138 (BHU92C), now preserved and seen at the West of England Rally at Weston-super-Mare in August 1998.

The MW, 2138, was also seen at Duxford in September that year alongside Leeds Roe bodied AEC Regent 106 (HUM401).
