Stagecoach's topless visit to Norfolk

Stagecoach East's open top Bristol FLF/ECW double deck 19952 (JKAH552D) was given an outing into Norfolk on Monday April 23rd when it was used by the company's marketing/publicity unit to enable the removal of timetable cases from a number of bus stops. With Stagecoach exiting most of its services in Norfolk after April 28th, the timetable cases were being removed.
The use of the bus, from the Stagecoach UK Bus Heritage Fleet , followed its recent successful MOT ensuring that it remains operational for a further 12 months although there are few opportunities now to use it on normal service as had been the case during the late 1990s and early 2000s.
Steven Knight Media was there to capture images of the bus on April 23rd and we are pleased to present a selection here.
