2 august 2009 - Stokes Bay, Gosport, Hampshire (UK) – The first Bristol SUL4A seen on TWB, this little bus was new to Western National in 1962 – look how tiny it seems! This short and narrow bus was ideal for the narrow roads in the West of England. It has an Albion 4 litre engine (the ‘A’ type code – please pay attention)…….

2 august 2009 - Stokes Bay, Gosport, Hampshire (UK) – A closer view of Bristol SUL4A #1224. This bus ran over 250,000 miles in service (400,000 km), so was a very good bargain. Haw many new 2009 buses will travel this far, I wonder?
