Bristol KS6B, one of seven allocated to the Gloucester City fleet. A 7ft 6in body graces this decker.

It was photographed from a Bristol-bound steam train at the point where the California Crossing gave gated access (under flags) into the Gloucester Docks rail network.
Only the road - and the church - survive. Railway, steam trains, bus, crossing - all are now memories.
