DP1006 RX51 FNV is one of 14 DPs that have transferred from Brentford Garage (AH) to Potters Bar Garage (PB) for the Route 234, which runs from Barnet Spires to Highgate Wood.

The coaches are operated by Scottish based travel firm, Citylink, who are in fact Scotland's leader of Express-Coach services. So what they were doing here leaves much to be desired...Any available information would be greatly appreciated. Other...
