372/04 Premier Travel Services (Cambus Holdings) G372 REG at Barton Mills - 1 Aug 1992

Saturday 1 August 1992 (approx. 1605) – In the Spring of 1990 Premier Travel Services added 14 Plaxton Expressliner bodied Volvo B10Ms to the fleet for National Express contracts. 372 (G372 REG) was seen here when working the 0830 National Express service 747 from Bristol to Lowestoft. The working diagram spread over a number of days didn’t take the coach into the Cambridge garage so the drivers fuelled at the Fina Station at Barton Mills. By the time the driver had finished refuelling I was behind him in the payment queue. Diesel was selling for 43.9 pence per litre (happy days!) and his bill came to £119.60. So he would have taken on over 272 litres (60 gallons).
