DSCN0724 Jackett’s Coaches R810 HWS

Tuesday 4 June 2013 (1058) – Jackett’s Coaches of Albaston near Gunnislake, Cornwall R810 HWS, a Plaxton Beaver bodied Mercedes-Benz Vario, had just arrived at Bude (Strand) on the 1015 service 219 from Hartland via Kilkhampton and Stratton. At Hartland connections can be made with Stagecoach service 319 to/from Bideford, and Barnstaple. This bus was familiar to me as it used to be in the fleet of Coach Services Limited of Thetford near my home some 340 miles away from Bude! It was new in April 1998 to James of Tetbury.
