 Midland Fox meets Arriva Fox County at SHOWBUS international 2002. Arriva's 4720 (PN52XBH) is a brand new DAF DB250LF with East Lancs Myllennium style bodywork, clearly of lowheight design alongside the Alexander bodied Leyland Fleetline. The Fox liveried red and yellow Fleetline is one of a batch acquired from Mainline at Sheffield, following on from earlier DMS styled Fleetlines and Metrobuses from the same source adding to the variety of the Fox doubledeck fleet. |
 No mistaking the location. Limebourne set up Cityrama as an early entrant in the London sightseeing open top market. The fleet comprised ex London DMS, but added some of SYPTE's unusual ECW bodied Daimler Fleetlines. This is believed to be former 825 (GWA825N). The Cityrama identity was kept separate from the rest of the business, and Cityrama also tried its hand at LT contracted services but was not successful and that side of the operation ceased. Cityrama was later absorbed by Ensignbus' London Pride operation. Also in this view is an Optare City Pacer on the new C1 service and an unidentified decker in a Docklands wrap. |
