Double Blast from the Past


I have been going through my Google main in-box catching up on the many excellent photos that come through all the photo groups I belong to and by coincidence there were these two photos for the same bus looking very different...

Above we have Peters photo in a quiet looking Bretonside looking fairly tidy in the smart blue and cream livery...

Then below we have Nicks photo from January 2005 - looking a lot less well cared for and in the insipid blue and white livery complete with First group fleet number.

Nothing in this picture bus wise is the same now as it was back when it was taken. Sadly no more VRs or 709Ds and the Citybus has had a repaint and LEDs fitted.
