VR 928 (LBL587L) was one of the trio of Mark 2 VRs delivered new to Alder Valley. They were the first Mark 2 VRs for the company and the first delivered in the new NBC livery. The bus was the one displayed at the forerunner of SHOWBUS, the Brunel University Festival in 1973. It is seen here later in life as an all over advert for Ford dealer Maidenhead Autos.

A little more incongruous is this view of the Maidenhead Autos VR in Newbury depot some 30 plus miles from Maidenhead.

The bus was seen the following year at North Weald passing the Ensignbus MCW Metrobus, 233 (KYV633X), often used as the SHOWBUS Control Bus.
