‘Scene’ once more, ‘West Coast Motors’ M800 WCM on Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’

I do not normally repeat a blog but an article in ‘Buses’ magazine for March 2018 prompts me to do so.

 

On page 57 Mike Fenton writes about M800 WCM and its history.

 

I was fortunate almost two years ago to see this bus in Oban and it appeared in one of my blogs at that time.

 

Here are the four images I took then.

 

Previously registered R928 XVM when new to ‘Greater Manchester South’ (GMS) as its No. 928.

 

‘GMS’ eventually becoming part of ‘Stagecoach Manchester’ where it was renumbered 20928.

 

After Manchester, it had a spells with ‘Stagecoach Yorkshire’ and ‘Stagecoach Southwest’ before joining ‘Quantock Motor Services’ where it was converted to part open top.
