Ah ! A Northern General Transport Routemaster. BEA and NGT were the only other Operators that bought RM Buses new. 

The Northern General Transport units were a bit different as can be seen in this picture; no Rear Platform; a different Interior Colour Scheme and Finish and Leyland O.600 Engines. 

Northern General Transport became Go Ahead Northern when Privatised; it expanded massively and now has noteworthy vehicles such as RM9 in its London subsidiary... 🤓

Asda produced a nice pair yesterday.

And then B&Q this morning. Anyone for a Picnic?

And then Lidl on the way back.

What's that bottom right of the Asda pic ? Triumph something maybe ? You might have missed something there. Unless it's yours of course.

Out on a dog walk yesterday I came across this fine display of chronologically parked Vauxhaulls.

Though the Astras in themselves would be of no interest on their own they do finish off the scene. Though obviously the Cavalier and Vectra are the main subjects here.

I may have spent a bit too long taking photos because just as I walked off a front door opened and a bloke asked me if I'd got enough photos. I complemented him on his fleet but then a big alsatian appeared at his side. Our dog is really not keen on other dogs so I had to make my excuses (that my dog isn't very good with other dogs) and leave but I think he was pleased that somebody appreciated his collection. 

 

Then last night this appeared in our Close briefly. Crap picture but this was taken sitting on my sofa.

So a bit of a Vauxhaull day.

My oldest chum has a business in the canary islands so is spending the cooler months there rather than Ireland.  Weird that.

Anyway, he's now trained and knows to send pornography photographs of any old rammel he sees.  This from earlier.

Marvellous.  Why, in a place like Tenerife, would you have anything else?  Absolute perfect climate for something like this to just plod on indefinitely.

I was in Croatia last year and there was loads of old shite still on the roads. 

 

Renault 4 vans, Jettas, Opel Kadetts and I see a Kia Pride. Brilliant. The other half was like "why are you taking photos of that old car, come on we're late".
