The PSV Circle (of which I have been a member for some years) aims to hold an Annual General Meeting in a different location in the UK every year. (Covid permitting).
Usually held at a weekend, they also include visits to operators and other bus related venues for the attending members to visit and enjoy.
This year, the location was in my part of the world, the East Midlands.
The fifth and final visit of this second day was to the two premises of ‘Marshalls of Sutton on Trent’, an operator I have long admired but always found elusive.
At the first ‘Marshalls’ site we were welcomed by Mr. John Marshall and he accompanied us to the second site aboard the beautiful Duple bodied Daimler seen in part 1.
There were a number of images of interest that did not fit into any particular category so I have grouped them together.

The following is repeated verbatim from the internet.
Model B1 registration VO3141. Supplied new to William Woodthorp, coal merchants of Grantham, it was fitted with tipping gear and was used on coal deliveries until 1965. It was found in a state of disrepair at Rush Green Motors in 1970 by Henry Stocks, a long distance lorry driver for Richards & Osborne Ltd, Fraddon, Cornwall. The Manchester was purchased by Richards & Osborne, and restored by Henry (known affectionately by everyone as Harr) and made the 1st of many rally appearances in 1972. In 1996 it was sold to John Vincent, of Fraddon, Cornwall.
