Yelloway TDK 687J in Bristol - Sunday 31 Oct 1971

Sunday 31 October 1971 - Marlborough Street Coach Station in Bristol was used as the northbound lunch stop on the Torquay-Rochdale service timetabled between 1210 and 1305. We arrived at 1200 and left again at 1307.

TDK 687J stands alongside a Plaxton bodied Leyland Leopard of Black and White working southbound on the 1100 Cheltenham-Paignton service. To the right of the Yelloway coach were three Eastern Coachworks bodied vehicles on Bristol chassis. The double decker was operated by Bristol Omnibus who owned this combined garage and bus/coach station. The two coaches, both on the RE chassis model, were operated by Royal Blue (on the Cardiff-Bournemouth service?) and Red and White (on the Aberdare-Portsmouth service?).
