This page lists Eastern National Bristol REs including links to all photos currently in the BVRES Collection showing the liveries carried by individual vehicles. If you have any further information or photos I would be delighted to hear from you at rob@robsly.com
In 1958 a depot allocation code scheme was introduced by Eastern National which resulted in a two-letter plate being added to every vehicle ahead of the fleetnumber plate indicating the current allocation of the vehicle. These codes were carried by REs throughout their working lives with the company and the following is a comprehensive list of codes with thanks to the SCT61 website for the information:
