 The Plaxton Pointer body originated with the manufacturer's Reeve Burgess subsidiary. It was adapted for the low floor Dart SLF in the version seen on the right for Scarborough & District's 264 (P264NRH). Ogle assisted in a redesign of the body to produce Pointer 2 as seen on 304 (T304NRH). Both buses were seen together in Scarborough in April 2007. |
 With the Plaxton factory in Scarborough the popularity of the local produce with Scarborough & District is not surprising. This line up of Darts at Scarborough Station is headed by the popular short Mini Pointer Dart (MPD) model, 476 (W476UAG). |
 At the other end of the line up was MPD 474 (W474UAG). |
 A large Dart SLF, 306 (T306JRH), is seen on Scarborough Park & Ride duties. |
 Plaxtons did not reign supreme in the elite panorama of Scarborough. Dart SLF 318 (S789NRV) has the short lived Caetano Compass body. The body design was developed by Wadham Stringer/UVG and adapted for the low floor Dart SLF before being replaced by the Caetano designed Nimbus design. Scarborough & District 318 was new to Frodingham Coaches in 1999, a company acquired by EYMS two years later, which is how the renegade got to join the Plaxton pack. |
