The livery on this bus is a bit of a concoction. Former London LS193 (THX193S) is masquerading as a Portsmouth Citybus Leyland National, though it never saw service as such. It is giving free rides around the Newbury Showground at the 2012 inaugral bus rally there. In 1990 the bus had entered service with Chase, later passing to Sussex Bus before preservation in late 2011. In 2014 it gained Bexleybus livery. |
