DescriptionOld view of Canterbury bus station - geograph.org.uk - 2300781.jpg |
English: A view of Canterbury bus station from the multi storey car park, which was demolished to make way for the Whitefriars Shopping centre. The buses are in the NBC red and white livery of their East Kent subsidiary. According to the original author, the "The taken date is a best estimate", at 1980. The silver bus, also belonging to East Kent, possibly indicates the date is closer to 1977, as it's one of the various buses in various companies around the country that were painted silver to commemorate the Queen's Silver Jubilee. While many other companies used a variety of schemes, the as with many things the NBC seemed to take a standardised approach for their subsidiaries, applying the livery as an allover silver with blue band, while moving the fleetname & logo up & forward, to make way for a commemorative message in black between the wheelarches - as seen in this example of West Yorkshire's bus, a Bristol VR. This East Kent bus however is a Leyland Atlantean with ECW bodywork. The company took delivery of 15 of this chassis/body combination in 1976, numbering them 7001 to 7015, all registered in the series JJG 1P to JJG 15P. See this image of 7013 in the normal NBC red & white. |
