Mystery bus - Comeng Fleet Line?

Post by Keats »

Just skipping through an episode of "Matlock Police", screen-capping vehicles for upload to IMCDb, and came across this 'un:

Is this a Comeng Fleet Line? Anyone know any more details - year, chassis, bus company, etc?

Brilliant - thanks so much! From the GLN prefix, I'd guess around 1956 as the year...

Mmm - not at all unusual for a single prefix to stretch across a couple of months, depending on where the plates were allocated.

Many thanks for the info!
