Once the Albions and Bedfords faded away, the Bristols took over Guernsey. Large numbers of
SUL4As, many from the Western National fleets, including coach versions, buzzed around the
island, followed by a wave of LHs. London Transport's BN class, were particularly popular, being
built to the 7ft 6in width - strange how London and Guernsey had a need for narrow buses, which
the rest of the country managed without, at least Guernsey's need is more readily apparent!
Now the LH is in decent, and this one lingers on in the uninspiring all over white livery of the
early nineties. Registration 14589 is seen in the North West corner of the island about to
return to St Peter Port.

Seen alongside the beautifully finished RT is another LH, this time in the present Guernsey Bus
& Coach colour scheme of blue and cream. Both vehicles are seen at St Peter Port Bus Station.

The other RT, 14, is seen on the island tour, heading north from St Peter Port on the island tour.
It is passing the former Guernsey Railways depot at St Sampsons, now used by Island Coachways.

The same bus, at L'Eree, close to the south west terminus of the coastal open top route, Pleinmont.

A few minutes later, 14 (54536) has turned round and is heading north again, from L'Eree
and eventually to St Peter Port.
