Solent Blue Line BFX 576T in Southampton

Similar bus sounds could be enjoyed in two cities which are also slightly similar having had to be hurriedly rebuilt after the War giving them an understated low-rise  flat-roofed Fifties 'New Town' feel. Southampton and Plymouth both standardised on the Leyland Atlantean amassing a large fleet and in the Nineties both Solent Blue and Western National paraded their inherited former NBC tuneful  Gardner powered Bristol VR's making interesting contrasts.
