the running footman ◊ 2009-07-23 18:13	I think you will find it is a bedford YRT, not a ford R1114, the lack of front grille slots & engine 'hump' in the entrance give it away. I believe this vehicles last psv owner was in middlesborough/durham area as a driver-trainer bus. It is also an Elite III, not an Elite II, the polished side mouldings & tall rear lamps give it away -- Last edit: 2009-07-23 18:15:52

Techiman ◊ 2013-12-29 10:55	Apparently there is a similar coach (ex-Grayway of Wigan) that was used in an episode of ITV drama Where the Heart is, involving a coach crash. Not sure what series it was, but I highly suspect it was featured in one of the later series (which isn't available on DVD). Nothing comes up with anything on here (surprisingly). Does anyone know what episode/series this was? -- Last edit: 2013-12-29 11:01:00
