A trio of coaches joined the RailAir fleet in 2007. First Beeline VC20603 (LK07CDN) is seen in prime position in front of the American Air Museum at SHOWBUS in September 2007.

The same coach is seen at Reading's Junction, in bound to the Station on one of Britain's first ever bus lanes. More accurately it was a trolleybus lane and was introduced when a big one way system was introduced in the town and the lane saved the cost of rerouting the overhead wires. This view was taken in May 2010.

Three different First liveries were represented at SHOWBUS 2012. The old livery on First Eastern Counties 36166 (BD11CFK) the Volvo B9TL Wright decker, the new livery on their Ipswich B7RLE 69431 (AU58FFT) and First coach livery on Plaxton Panther bodied Volvo B9R 20807 (YX11HPP).

Here is a better view of the Plaxton Panther bodied Volvo as it arrived at SHOWBUS. Note the VC prefix has been dropped from the fleet number folowing First's sale of its London operations and the Beeline operation coming under the wing of their south of England division and finding a new identity as First Berkshire.

The coach was actually seen earlier in the year in May at Reading Station.
