Sharing red and cream colours and little else are former Eastern Counties Bristol MW LS789 (5789AH) and Safeguard Coaches Optare Excel YJ03UKM. They are seen leaving the rally site together after the 2004 SHOWBUS event. Whereas most Tilling companies coach liveries were a reverse of their bus livery, with cream becoming the dominant colour, Eastern Counties used this dark red, rather than Tilling Red. Other notable exceptions were West Yorkshire, Midland General, Crosville, Thames Valley, United Auto and Royal Blue's parent fleets. |

The coach joined a line up of a variety of Bristol MW buses and coaches, LS789 was sandwiched between a pair of contrasting Royal Blue coaches, 1410 (759MDV) and 1436 (HDV641E). |

In 2014 LS789 is seen arriving for the final SHOWBUS Duxford display.
