It looks far more attractive than it used too.

Looks like you've got a whole heap of fleetlists to add to your NX Group collection.

I think I have been on that very bus when it was on the 85 between Kingston and Putney Bridge.

I've put a Lucketts group fleet list on my website, this isn't an official one, so any corrections welcome

I bet the previous owners of Lucketts are relieved they sold out when they did.

Do you know if this new division includes Clarkes, Stewarts and Woods coaches?

Many thanks.
