VDV134S Joins Viscount today on loan with thanks to our friends at A2B Travel Group in Royston, Cambridge.

This vintage bus is very special in that it is a 'convertible' Bristol VRT, this means that the roof can be unbolted and replaced with railings to make it Open-top in the summer and re-fitted to be closed-top in the winter.

This vehicle will fit in very well with us and following an MOT and Service etc. will be available for Private Hire and our Scarborough Seafront Service.

Today we said goodbye to our friend and bus enthusiast Graham Wise from Otley.
He was a good friend to Nathan & Xav during their time at ConnexionsBuses as he was to most drivers.
Sadly he has reached the last stop on route and is at rest now.
Goodbye Graham, you'll be sorely missed.
