The 1971 batch of dual purpose RELLs were the last buses to enter service in the traditional green and cream livery. XLJ722-4K were allocated to Bournemouth depot, and became the regular vehicles on the limited stop services to Southampton. This rather grainy shot doesn’t permit a precise identification, but one of the three is seen here at Southampton Bus Station.
