Finally, we present 4 pictures of the current (2007) Arriva Southend fleet to bring Peter's story up to date. Here he is using Plaxton bodied Volvo B6 3606, L606EKM, at the Belgrave Road terminus of the 29.
Peter took this shot to show the bus was still "serving Kent & Sussex" to quote the fleetname strapline! The bus had recently been transferred to Southend from Arriva Southern Counties.
