Our first visit today is to Scarborough where we find Scarborough& District using Routemasters on the Seafront Service. This is 812 (ALM65B) proudly displaying the big bow tie that was used for Scarborough & District’s Seafront buses.

Heading back to the Midlands, Stagecoach Midland Red was still operating Leyland Nationals and the engineering team at Nuneaton garage were happy to move three examples outside and park them alongside each other. Pictured in July of 2001 are NOE602/05R and PUK627R. They were parked alongside former London Olympian D136FYM.
