Bristol SU

The Bristol SU was developed by Bristol Commercial Vehicles at the very start of the 1960s. It was designed and built in two forms. The short version, "SUS" and the longer version the "SUL". It was supplied with an Albion EN250H four cylinder engine that was also used in the Albion Nimbus. Bodywork was by Eastern Coachworks and was supplied in both bus and coach format on the SUL chassis. Western and Southern National had 133 SUs of which there were 81 buses, 16 SUS buses and 36 SUL coaches. Production finished in 1966. The coaches are the subject matter of this video programme.
