Southdown-Brighton, Hove & District Bristol Lodekka 2042, XPM42, on service outside The Pavillion, Brighton.
One of three convertible open-top Lodekkas to be repainted all-over cream by Southdown and to gain the joint gold block style fleetname, the other two being sisters 2043 and 2044. Of interest is the classic 'art deco' oval bus shelter, at one time numerous in Brighton.
