‘Scene’, Down Memory Lane with ‘ARRIVA Midlands’ (AM) 3 on Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’

To continue, an occasional series which came about when I was looking through my collection of images for something else and this selection turned up.

 

In the early days due to the number of operators who formed the group, the fleet was a mixture of types amalgamated by the livery. 

 

It was plain, simple and some said boring.

 

I liked it so here are some examples of how it looked.

The sources I have checked all show this bus as being bodied by Plaxton but I have my doubts.
