Reading, Konect & Roadcar Wrights
Three Wright bodied buses together, starting with late entry, a DAF DB250LF from Konect, the Reading's Scania and RoadCar's Volvo.
 
Hedingham Omnibuses
Hedingham put on a superb display as usual. Centrepiece was their new Wright Eclipse bodied Volvo B7RLE, L340 (EU05CLJ), flanked by the B7TL President and one of the recently acquired ex Go-Ahead London Volvo Olympians. Nearest the camera is SHOWBUS veteran L84 (RGV284N), which has attended most SHOWBUS rallies since it and SHOWBUS were new in 1974. A new Plaxton bodied coach completed the line up, though a Hedingham liveried VR was in the Concorde - Bristol display. Tagged on the end are The Delaine exhibits.
 
The Delaine
The Delaine exhibits are seen here arriving at SHOWBUS. Leading is their 138 (P112RGS), a former Sovereign Volvo B10B with Wright bodywork, followed by new Volvo B7TL, 140 (AD05OCT) with Delaine's favoured East Lancs coachwork.
