‘Scene’ in the South West. Torquay and Dawlish. on ‘Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’

Torquay is very much a ‘Stagecoach’ town but there are others. 

 

One of whom ‘Local link’ have sadly decided to give up bus operation from April 1st. 2017 citing rising costs and falling concessionary pass payments as the reasons.

 

A largely unsung operator who will be sadly missed.

This bus was originally registered to its builder. i.e. Optare.

 

Wether it was for the companies use or if it was built as stock I do not know.
