I used to have an interest in local public transport, still do to a lesser extent. Heres a link to a small free site I messed about with, it has most of the MGO preserved vehicles pictured including BUT trolly bus of Notts and Derby. Im suprised its still there really.I cant get the link to work but if you copy and paste into address bar it will find it

I was one of the original owners of this vehicle and still work on her.
The vehicle is a Bristol FLF6G Lodekka with 70 seat ECW body new to the MGO in 1968. She was the very last of her type to be made but only had a short working life being retired in 1979 afterwhich she was purchased for preservation by a group of us.
She is still resident in the local area and can be seen at various rally's and carnivals throughout the summer months.
For any further info on the vehicles of the MGO please feel free to contact me and I wil help if I can.

Several times whilst travelling around the area I have seen a lovingly preserved MGO double decker bus, has anyone got any contact information about the owner of this beautiful beast.
