First Leicester Volvo B7TL Wright 46
Five years before SHOWBUS, Classic Bus magazine staged a small rally at the Hertfordshire County Showground in June 2014. One of the buses on display was this Wright Eclipse Gemini bodied Volvo B7TL renumbered 46 (KP54AZL) from its standard First group number, 32646. The bus had been painted in the livery used since the sixties until the red, white and grey scheme. The bus was displayed between two other buses in First commemorative liveries, another Wright/B7TL in Rotherham colours and an ex Rotherham Plaxton/Trident in Westcliff-on-Sea red and cream.

Later in August that year at Gaydon the B7TL was displayed alongside 5 (KX05MJF), aka 66965, a similar Wright bodied Volvo B7RLE in a take on Leicester Tramways livery, which largely replicated that used on the bus fleet until the livery on 46 took over.
