Trent-Barton High Peaks Volvo

 Whereas many former NBC operators gaining their freedom took a very much see how it goes approach Trent buckled down bought new buses and thought it through. This included branding and the buses on the Alexander bodied Volvos on the Buxton to Manchester service were chistened Trans Peak doing away with traditional route numbers.

Hvide or White Bus to Helsingør Volvo B57-60 VBK/Karsen No.6

 One of my favourite Independents in Denmark was Hvide or in English the White Bus based at  Hørsholm. Some of the buses on this 188 route which followed the coastal road up to Helsinger from Klampenborg were branded 'Strand Buses'. It operated DAB-Leyland, Volvo and I even saw an AEC at the garage. Here in 1982 now ten years old we can see how good B57-60  VBK/Karsen bodied No.6 bus looked in that livery.
