West Yorkshire, Harrogate EG7, DWU138, was a Bristol L6G with an E.C.W. C31F body which had been new in 1939 as number 640 with 30 seats, and had been rebuilt by E.C.W. in 1941, and by Plaxton in 1945.
In 1952 it was again rebuilt with a PV2 style radiator and reseated to C31F. It was renumbered from 640 to EG7 in April 1954, and was withdrawn in March 1957, passing to North (dealer), Leeds in May 1957, being scrapped in 1961.
It is seen at the stop in Chester Street, Bradford, the road between the two parts of the bus station, which was used for the services to Blackpool. On the right, in the bus station, is one of the Bristol single deckers with the old style destination displays.
