An ex-Southdown Bristol VR running shuttle between Tyseley Locomotive Works and Tyseley station at the works' September 2019 open weekend. Bit of trivia, a Bristol VR was used for Doctor Who's Planet of the Dead. I rode this VR on one of it's shuttle runs, though I'm glad to say that this bus didn't drive through a wormhole and end up on San Helios!

West Midlands PTE Daimler Fleetline at the 2018 Warley exhibition. I can just about remember these buses, as several lasted in service until 1997 and I can even vaguely remember riding one on the 55 route from Shard End. These buses are significant as they were the Midlands' first standard front entrance double-decker buses and have a certain old world charm to them.
