Unfortunately I had knocked my camera and dislodged the viewfinder which I didn't discover until I eventually got the slides back, hence my cutting off the tops of the towers. On the left is DEL37 a 1937 Bedford WHG tower wagon of Bournemouth Corporation Transport which had entered preservation, but may not have survived. On the right is VH6217 an ex Huddersfield AEC Regent acquired by Bournemouth in 1945 but not used in passenger service, instead being rebuilt as a tower wagon. Originally also painted crimson it was later painted in the standard primrose and maroon livery, as applied to the bus fleet.

Is this one allowed in the "Topless Beauties" gallery???? You can just catch a whiff of the sea air as we travel on a Bournemouth open top Fleetline with the breeze catching the hair, which wouldn't be a problem for the photographer nowadays! Just don't stand up and touch the trolleybus wires, although I presume they had been "unplugged" by this time.

125. ERU402L
Uncertain which gallery might allocate to this one? We are getting into the "bread van" era, and while I never considered them to be "real buses", they were certainly part of the "small is economical" thinking which was about to be inflicted on the travelling public. Bournemouth M2, ERU402L, was a Ford with Strachan B16F body, new in May 1973.
