[edit] Request for Expansion

It would be great if anyone could add more depth to the article on this company. The "Coaches" section picks up from Paramount range that was introduced in the 1980s, but there's no mention of the hugely successful Panaroma or Elite styles from the 1970s, or their predecessors dating back to the 1950s. Similarly on the bus side, nothing is said about the Derwent range. It would be interesting to find out more about the history of the company, and how it managed to aquire rival [Duple] and it journey into and out of Transbus International if anyone can provide it. --Ayrshire--77 08:52, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Greatly expanded and improved article, much more interesting! --Ayrshire--77 06:31, 6 September 2005 (UTC)


I'm working on completing the history, but can anyone add a decent photograph of a current Plaxton design? --RXUYDC 20:32, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
