Site Update-Bristol RE fleet remembered.
The Bristol RE was a interesting part of the Black Prince fleet, with examples of the type being in stock almost continuously from 1977 until 1991. A brief history of each machine is now in the History section of the website, complete with a photographic record of the buses direct from the Dave Crowther photo archives. Enjoy!. #BristolRE #Dewsbury #BlackPrinceBuses #ECW #Gardner #BlackPrinceCoaches #204 #230 #Batley #Morley
