A bit far too north even for Eastern Counties in Lincoln: Bristol FLF JAH 553E.

Outside Lincoln Railway Station picking up enthusiasts on a museum running day last November. At least they will get quite a few on this seventy seater Bristol ECW bodied FLF. I always had a soft spot for Eastern Counties perhaps it was a combination of things including the way they managed to make some attempt to match the registrations to the fleet number like many muncipals and the BET Group. I also favour the more cheerful 'Tilling Red' as apposed to often drab green and of course the operator's huge and fascinating and often very rural operating area covering Cambridgeshire, Suffolk and  Norfolk where one could find small bus garages and even dormy sheds was quite enticing.
