98. FSC182
Edinburgh 135, FSC182, a Daimler CVG6/ Met-Cam, 1949 built, seems to have escaped being illustrated on here. This bus, similar to deliveries to Newcastle and of course Birmingham, was exhibited at the Corporation Transport Museum at Shrubhill works for several years alongside tram 35. The museum closed, and the collection was dispersed. Seen on a "Classic Bus " running day outside the Edinburgh Botanic Gardens, 135 ticks over in the shade.

This photograph is a little misleading as at first sight the bus appears to be restored. In fact it's a testimony to quality of presentation and traditional style of Portsmouth's livery that make it look preserved. I believe the advert indicates its true role, which was a driver training vehicle. The preserved image is enhanced further by the fitment of an old Portsmouth blind dating from the era when motorbus services used letters.

In this instance I suspect one can actually say that the back end of the bus is more interesting than the front. The first production Atlantean in service, FHF451, has long been restored as Wallasey 1 in the unique sea green and cream livery with vintage style of fleetname (since 1983 I believe). In the fine sunshine that blessed the Greater Manchester Transport Society's 2014 event at Heaton Park I couldn't resist a shot which shows the very early style of single piece bonnet fitted to the first Atlanteans. You can't help but notice the huge rear route display!

Wolverhampton was to Guy what Coventry was to Daimler; a consistently loyal buyer of the locally built buses. When the recently permitted 2 axle 30ft long double-deckers began arriving in 1958, Wolverhampton initially opted for fully-fronted, forward entrance bodies mounted on Guy's Arab IV 6LW model. The first, with, a Burlingham FH41/27F body was followed by 50 with Metro-Cammell Orion FH41/31F bodies between December 1959 and December 1961.

Apart from the external blind and a few removable windows it appears to have been sympathetically adapted and thus capable of re-entering preservation. It also retains genuine YWD destination blinds.

In April 1974 on the formation of the West Yorkshire PTE, the Bradford City Transport fleet was renumbered by the addition of 2000 to the fleet number. Initially renumbering used the traditional gold transfers until the supplies of number 2 ran out after which many buses were carefully signwritten with gold paint in the correct style but without black edging. This practice soon ceased however and once supplies of the Halifax style numbers were available many blue buses received white (and in some cases black) small front numbers.

824. BON548C
When Birmingham City Transport began, in 1962, replacing its huge intake of new buses, bought in the early 1950s, it chose Daimler's then new Fleetline CRG6LX chassis as its new standard bus. Body orders were split between Metro-Cammell and Park Royal. BON548C was a 1965 example of the Metro-Cammell version, the original box-like Orion derived body having been "modernised" by a moulded front lower panel.
