Eastern National
Single Deckers

Eastern National JN8567, a Bristol JO5G with Eastern Counties B35R body, new in 1937, seen here in Broadway Market, Southend about to leave on route 12 to Creeksea. JN8567 was new to Westcliff-on-Sea Motor Services and like the rest of the fleet, it passed to Eastern National in 1955, gaining the fleet number 248 and lasting until around 1958/9.
Since Westcliff did not use fleet numbers, this photo must have been taken after the ENOC takeover but before it was repainted green.
