 For several years, London & Manchester Assurance provided a London Country Atlantean AN96 to operate the free service between Uxbridge Station and the Hillingdon Showground. When driver, Arthur Bell, took his break - and at busy times - Ted Brakell provided a back up service with RTs, many of which sported London & Manchester adverts. These two are thus employed, though exterior advertising is for Brakell Omnibus Sales.

AEC RT1173 (JXC481) is seen at Showbus 75. It sports the early post-war livery with upper deck cream window surrounds. It was new in 1949 with a Saunders body, swapping it for a Park Royal body on overhaul in 1957, so it is likely the Park Royal body never wore this livery.
