Yes this is post No.1000 so I thought I had better find you something a bit special like this Brush bodied Maidstone Coprporation Daimler CVG6 from 1948 seen some twenty years later. Not only was it one of by now only three buses in the fleet that weren't Leylands it still wore the old ginger and brown colours that suited this rather smelly town with it's brewery and toffee factory. I've a feeling too this was one of the buses that was lent to London Transport when it was new to ease a chronic bus shortage. Also of interest are the collection of vehicles manufactured by BMC, the Peugeot 403 Taxi with it's cherished number-plate, and of course the horrible new Sixties office block marking the start of the ruination of another once charming English town.
