‘Scene’ at SHOWBUS 24/09/2022 /1 Tributes to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’

I have attended a number of SHOWBUS events over the years but this was the first time I had attended one at the Hertfordshire County Showgound.

 

The 50th. show and if we are to believe what we read, the last.

 

It would be a great pity if the reputation the SHOWBUS name has built up over the years were to be lost but we shall have to wait and see.

 

Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II made many headlines during 2022. 

 

Many buses have been decorated to celebrate the Queen’s 70 year reign.

 

Unfortunately, following her death, buses in the platinum anniversary livery will do doubt return to their former fleet livery

 

This first tribute, is in respect of the 96 years of her life.
