Lincoln Bristol VR: An Ugly Duckling

A jazzy unsympathetic livery did little to improve the looks of Lincoln's East-Lancs bodied Bristol VR's of which there were twenty-one in total. I always found the similar East-Lancs bodywork on the Leyland Atlantean most attractive so it must be the odd looking radiator-grill that gives this bus it's cut-and-fold cardboard model look. There were also ten of the more usual ECW bodied variety and one of these can be seen as part of this busy lunchtime street scene taken during the Eighties..
