All over advertising liveries on trams are often a contentious issue for many enthusiasts but this is a story with a difference as we are featuring an advert on a bus of a tramway! The tramway in question is the Seaton Tramway and the bus is a 1980 Bristol VR open top bus which is operated by Mendip Mule and will be used as part of a unique tram and bus offer this summer.<\/p>\n
The Bristol VR open top bus will be joined by a very rare Bristol built 1971 single decker \u2013 which is England\u2019s only single deck open topper in service \u2013 in providing the service for the Mendip Mule Motorbus season for 2016. A variety of different services will run between 29th May and 8th September titled \u201cThe Devon Donkey\u201d and the \u201cAxe Valley Ass\u201d, although there are a number of different routes which will run on different days. Joint tickets can be purchased which will allow travel by tram and bus. Full details of the routes are on the Seaton Tramway website at http:\/\/www.tram.co.uk\/mendip-mule-motorbus-fares<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Bristol VR bus is seen in Taunton on 8th May.
