Vehicle details
J858FTC (3858) is a Mercedes Benz 709D with Reeve Burgess "Beaver" body, that was new in September 1991.
Vehicle history
It stated its working life with Badgerline at Weston-Super-Mare and transferred to City Line in January 1996. When it was withdrawn from service it was sold to VOSA where it was used to train vehicle examiners, before being bought by our member David Cole.
In 2010 David very kindly donated the midibus to the Group to use to transport members and our sales stand to and from rallies. It has since been re-painted to give an impression of how this class of bus might have looked had the Bristol Omnibus Company livery still been in use.
Current situation
J858FTC is in good condition, and will be a regular visitor to rallies. |
