119: A Maidstone & District 'Relief'

Maidstone &District's first five 36ft AEC Reliance Willowbrook buses S1-5 could usually be found much nearer to home around the town of Tonbridge just south of Tunbridge Wells, but S3 by then in early 1969 renumbered 3703 was pictured passing Brighton's Lewis Road ornate Victorian depot wearing a typically unhelpful destination much displayed by Southdown too when providing additional service buses on busy routes. For many of us this style of bodywork which was the standard for the BET Group in 1962 is something of a favourite.
