I have just came across this on a website. Now if I am correct H215 LOM used to be Travel West Midlands. H139 GGS used to be AM-PM too.

139 was actually a surprisingly nice bus, considering whos it was! I remember I only ever managed to catch it once on the 900 but it sounded just like a Lynx (which I suppose is right as it's a ZF Leyland). I always wondered what happened to it so nice to know it hasn't been scrapped.

It's interesting Michael to see the two buses still exist.

I do think the description of H215 LOM as a Scania Metrobus is very misleading, but it is a vehicle I would like to think could be preserved.

Well it's only £4000 so if anyone has that buy that bus! ;)

Not sure if they still have their other MK1 and/or 2786. Thought all of them had been replaced by Volvo Olympians.

Children? Pfft. Polish your attitude before you write.

The reg plate and the fleet number are obscured. Something's fishy.
