题名: YELLOW BUSES RARITIES
正文语种: eng
摘要: Bournemouth Transport had already adopted Yellow Buses as its trading name by July 1985 when Iain MacGregor spent time in the Dorset seaside town. The town's corporation had operated electric trams from 1902 to 1936, trolleybuses from 1933 to 1969 and motorbuses since 1906. Local government reorganisation transferred it out of Hampshire in 1974 and redesignated the council as a borough. The livery had been primrose and chocolate from the introduction of electric trams, but by the 1980s the chocolate part was confined to the fleetname. The newest double-deckers then operating were 20 Leyland Olympians delivered in 1982 with Gardner 6LXB engines and Marshall bodies. The engines were similar to those in the Leyland Fleetlines it had bought immediately beforehand, but the Marshall bodywork was a new one-off choice and these were the first and last Olympians that the Cambridge company bodied.
