That's not a bus graveyard, it's next year's Stagecoach fleet.

Reminds me about Myall's of Bassingbourn in Cambridgeshire. They had loads of rotten junk lying about their depot including old cars and several Commer Spacevans.

 

A mate of mine still has pictures online here: http://beds-herts-bucks-buses.fotopic.net/c122444_1.html

The photos on the Derelict Place website are from West Wales where im from so ive heard from bus enthusiasts West Wales is one of the best areas to veiw old buses still in service, even up until the 00's buses from the 70's could commonly be seen in day to day use and they're still are some 70's and early 80's ones being used which can only be a good thing. Nearly all of them are in immaculate condition too.

I shall see what I can do, but since about 2003/2004 alot of the 70's buses were withdrawn, but heres some links to pictures taken in the last year or so of buses still in service in West Wales (they are not mine Ive just spent abit of time searching on Flickr)

 

I passed this first one a couple of weeks back on a country road and it looked immaculate:

Barnsley would appear to be a choice destination for Autoshite Tours

All that remains is to arrange suitable transport. Your suggestions, folks and folkesses?
