3 august 2018 - Cirencester, Gloucestershire - South Cerney: Seen at a big vehicle rally last weekend was this little group of Bedford OB coaches, all with Duple Vista bodywork. This was a common vehicle with coach and bus operators in the late 1940s and 1950s, carrying around thirty people in comfort. Most were driven by a 3,200cc petrol engine. The coach nearest the camera was owned by Royal Blue, a national company specialising in express coach links from cities and towns in the south and west of England. Because of their handy size, OBs were a popular choice for second owners and then preservationists.
