G W Osborne . Tollesbury , Essex . 30 HHW933D . Colchester Bus Park , Essex . October-1973 .

            Bristol VRLL6G  -  ECW H80F . This had its engine mounted lengthways  behind the offside rear right wheel 

New as a demonstrator with Bristol Commercial Vehicles , and it made its debut at the September-1966 Commercial Motor Show , held at Earl's Court , London . It was there where I first saw it . 

HHW933D 's  demonstrator days over , it came into the fleet of this operator , a matter of days before I took this shot  . Wearing here the livery it carried during its final time as a demonstration . It was , for want of a better expression , the Bristol Omnibus Company , “One Man Operated Bus” livery , with just on Osbornes name on the front dash panel . 

With no proper destination gear fitted , I captured it in Colchester's Bus Park , Essex . 

During October-1973 .
