Thanks for the wonderful streets pics. My OH is a bus enthusiast and wants to know what the full registration of the bus that's after the charabanc pic. The bus hes interested in has a reg that looks like UP... The photo has the driver standing next to it holding a wash leather/towel or something.
Thanks

Hi Ian and Michael

Many thanks for replying, your personal input and photographs are just what I was looking for. If you have any more I (and probably others) would like to see them.

Being in Hertfordshire that coach registration could be UR rather than UP, Hertfordshire being allocated UR, RO and JH, however looking at it again it is probably more likely to be UP or UF?

Hi yes OH was wondering if it was UP which would be a north east reg if they'd bought the coach second hand from someone up where we are.

Welcome to RC. We can only reply here on the threads until you have made 3 posts, then you can use private messaging - bit like internal email. External email addresses aren't made public for obvious reasons. There are many transport enthusiasts out there who would love to see pictures of the old fleets and their history .

Ah yes I have send both Ian and Michael PM's but guess they cant reply until they have posted some more, personally it would be great to see more photos of the vehicles and the depot if they have some?
