LH6L with Plaxton Supreme 7910BXMS C41F 7' 6" body.
No 3307 was one of
24 originally supplied to Western National and Devon General which
were built to this special width for the narrow roads frequently
encountered in the West Country. This vehicle was one of four that
had been a familiar sight in the Taunton/Minehead area for many
years. More recently, the main role had been driver training with
First Southern National. The photo depicts 3307 on its final run - a
Taunton to Minehead return on Sunday 3 February 2002 - near
Bicknoller, Somerset. Immediately after completion of this run 3307
was donated by First Southern National to WHOTT. Following a repaint
and other restoration to original NBC livery it was returned to the
road in 2009. Since then it has attended many events across the
westcountry including part of a film set on Dartmoor. |
