The Bus Station at Vila Real do Sto. António with some typical local RN buses in 1984 including 9604 one of the 'electric-razor-foil' fronted Volvo B58-60B coaches bodied by Salvador Caetano I particularly like. As well as a second Volvo and a pair of UTIC bodied AEC's all taking a mid-day break, passengers board UTIC-Dab-Leyland 9216 for Monte Gordo an gentle run a few miles along the coast

Great memory of the wonderful RN days. And a familiar scene for me. Vila Real do Sto. António is a beautiful little town. The bus station was always busy, because it was at the terminal of the ferry to Spain. These days there is a highway and a bridge over the Guadiana river. The terminal and the train station are permanently closed and the buses run less frequently.
