  C949 GAF - Mercedes L608D - Ex Western National 106  
     
 

Accession 512 12/02/06

1986 Mercedes L608D with Reeve Burgess B20F body.

No 106 was delivered in Hoppa livery, and worked for ten years in Cornwall at Camborne and Truro depots before being transferred to Plymouth for a contract with Sainsbury's for which it carried its second overall advertising livery. Do you know what the first one was? After sale in 1999 no 106 passed to the Gosport based Royal Marines Light Infantry Cadets Marching Band otherwise known as RMLICMB – try pronouncing that! It was brought on eBay by Colin Billington in 2006 and donated to WHOTT.
