(Neil Fraser)Previous | NextRed Arrow MBA606 was the first single decker in the UK to be adorned with an allover advertisement and it ran from September 1972 on route 500.

From Des Elmes at 2008-09-18 23:57:02 : MBA605 later worked alongside MBA602 at North Mymms Coaches (where it was named Aargau), before being scrapped in 1996.
From Kelvin Williams at 2009-11-12 22:59:56 : I remember this bus very well. I used to drive it together with 2 others sister cars and 2 ex london DMS Fleetlines. We used them on "Footy" buses between Dover Eastern Docks and the Priory Railway station , i do know one of these eventually ended it's life in a scrapyard in Sandwich,Kent. [ Post Townsend Thoresen Days] Very Sad !!
