NATIONAL Bus Company subsidiaries are already taking delivery of the first of around 300 Ford Transit minibuses for minibus services based on the successful Exeter experience of Devon General.
Vehicles based on the Ford parcel van are being built by such bodybuilders as Carlyle Works of Birmingham, Rootes of Maidstone, Robin Hood of Fareham and Walter Alexander (Coachbuilders) of Falkirk.
Among the operators taking delivery of the vehicles is Leicester-based Midland Fox, whose vehicles carry a new "Fox Cub" brand name.
Midland Fox has been involved in bitter competition with the Leicester municipal bus operator.
