Black & White's Cheltenham Coach Station was the major provincial hub of the Associated Motorways network and the 1400h departure was always a site to behold, even in the early days of National Express. This late sixties view shows Duple Viceroy bodied Bedford VAM14 1602 (EFE446E) with several Plaxton Panorama Leopards of Black & White and down the end alongside a departing Bristol MW of Bristol Greyhound, one of United Counties 1966 Bristol MWs. |

Coaches were never a mainstay of the Lincolnshire fleet. But unusual were a batch of coach bodied lightweight Bristol SC4LK motors of 1957. The body style was also used on rebodies of Bristol L chassis for the likes of Thames Valley and Hants & Dorset. Exhibited at SHOWBUS 2002 was former 2609 (OFW806).

Lincolnshire had a large number of ECW bus bodied Bristol SC4LKs like 2453 (PFW935) seen at SHOWBUS the previous year. Alongside is a Western National lightweight Bristol SU coach.

This view of 2453 is thought to be at Quainton.
