I was on a private visit to Bursledon Brickworks the day before the 2018 Bricks, Beer & Buses Festival. I am immensely grateful for the hospitality received from David, Mike and Tom, volunteers with the Southampton & District Transport Heritage Trust. Southampton Guy Arab III 64/FTR511 was carefully driven by Tom Lingwood out of the line up shown earlier in my series. The upper deck cover had been removed with great care so that rain water ended up outside the vehicle and I was treated to a short ride within the brickworks as Tom repositioned the bus for the activities of the following day. My hosts identified a need for a little tree lopping en route so that the next day's passengers would be safe. During that stop no. 64 looked particularly splendid in its mixed setting of industrial heritage and trees. 200_3_P1050596

I was on a private visit to Bursledon Brickworks the day before the 2018 Bricks, Beer & Buses Festival. I am immensely grateful for the hospitality received from David, Mike and Tom, volunteers with the Southampton & District Transport Heritage Trust. When I saw a wonderful line up of five buses which live on, I was in bus heaven. This is a closer look at two of the five which are a recent acquisition by the Southampton & District Transport Heritage Trust, former First 46325, a Plaxton Pointer bodied Dennis Dart N325ECR and a former Southampton Leyland Atlantean 167/EOW400L. 200_3_P1050575CE

I am immensely grateful for the hospitality received from David, Mike and Tom, volunteers with the Southampton & District Transport Heritage Trust. When I saw this wonderful line up of buses which live on, I was in bus heaven. These are five of the twelve vehicles I saw on my visit and are (l-r) East Lancs bodied Leyland Atlantean YRV256V with stickers for the fictitious operator Wyvern. The bus was used in an episode of Casualty and damage to the lower nearside reveals where a BMW was driven into it during the filming. Under the orange tarpaulin, Southampton Guy Arab III 64/FTR511. During my visit, the upper deck cover was removed with great care so that rain water ended up outside the vehicle and I was treated to a short ride within the brickworks as the bus was repositioned for the activities of the following day. The very rare Southampton Seddon Pennine RU 15/BCR379K. This is believed to be one of only two of the type in preservation. A recent acquisition by the Southampton & District Transport Heritage Trust, former First 46325, a Plaxton Pointer bodied Dennis Dart N325ECR. Another former Southampton Leyland Atlantean 167/EOW400L. 200_3_P1050574C
