 "Sammy's garage", as the Victoria depot of BET subsidiary Samuelson's New Transport used to be known amongst drivers, is now the drop off terminus for London bound coaches. Chenery's Volvo B12B with Jonckheere Mistral 50 FJ05AOV is seen again pulling into Sammy's garage in June 2007. |

 From NBC days, coach operations in East Anglia ended up in the hands of Ambassador based in Gt Yarmouth. The company continued to survive as a small independent operator working on contract to National Express as well as other coach operations. Birmingham - London may seem some distance from their Anglian base, but National Express contractors will operate groups of interlinked routes with crews resting away from home. Volvo B12B FD54DGU probably operated an Anglian-Birmingham service before the run to London where it is seen approaching Victoria in June 2007. |
