Robinson (Kimbolton) KEW785P near Tilbrook - 23 Mar 1993

Tuesday 23 March 1993 – Robinson’s Coaches of Kimbolton KEW 785P picking up school children west of the village of Tilbrook, Cambridgeshire close to the boundary with Northamptonshire on what was then the A45 main road. When the cross country A14 dual carriageway was constructed this road between St. Neots and Higham Ferrers was downgraded as the B645. Little did I know when I took this photograph (from the back seat of a car travelling in the opposite direction) that some 20 or so years later that my wife and I would travel this route every week to visit our daughter and family. We much preferred this route rather than the A14 as it was quieter and far more relaxed only taking about 15 minutes more travelling. KEW 785P was a Plaxton Panorama Elite bodied Bedford YRT new in September 1975.
