 Alongside the stalwart Regent III and CVG6 at the Lathalmond Open Weekend in 2014 were two of Tayside's fleet of Alexander bodied Volvo Ailsas. Promoting the Museum with its adverts and destination screen is former 273 (WTS273T). Picture ref A4635 |
 Of more radical appearance was sister Ailsa 272 (WTS272T) converted to open top later in life and painted in a different style of Tayside livery. Picture ref A4716 |
Former Tayside 324 (NSP324X) was once one of the large fleet of Volvo Ailsa doubledeckers that whined up and down the streets of Dundee. The vehicle found a temporary home with one of the High Wycombe independent operators on school bus duties for a while, but has since moved on. It is seen in the company of ex Yorkshire Traction VR 909 (XAK909T) part of the now defunct Classic Coaches fleet.

 Lincoln turned out to be one of the few places where you could see Bristol VRs with bodies by three different manufacturers. On the left is a rare highbridge ECW bodied example and in the centre East Lancs bodied 32 (EFE32T), both purchased new by Lincoln Corporation. On the right is a secondhand acquisition from Tayside with Alexander body, which became Lincoln 93 (OSR203R), a long wheelbase VRTLL6G new as 203. |

 Another Dundee refugee with Lincoln was former 187 (OSR187R) then 87 with Lincoln, accompanied by Lincoln City's own East Lancs bodied VRTLL6G 39 (UFW39W). |
