Only knows body builder is Plaxton but chassis is unknown... Somebody records this already on the net but still not shown chassis model type... http://busesonscreen.net/screen1/index.php?p=screentv.tvi.inspectormorse -- Last edit: 2019-08-03 01:28:20 |

697 BYU still has a Plaxton connection on this 2010 Dennis Javelin. Originally issued London, April 61 to Jan 62 "allocated in blocks", so possible it was first issued to a coach firm. |

It has a Bedford 'Griffin' badge on the grille, I believe.![[Image: bedfordbadge.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/558/bedfordbadge.jpg) (Tricentrol were also main Ford dealers but I cannot remember what other chassis manufacturers they worked with.) -- Last edit: 2019-08-03 15:19:44 |

Yes, my first impression of the badge was that of a Bedford 'Griffin', too! So it seems to be a Bedford YLQ/S Tricentrol as we can exclude all the other makes with long chassis. Right now picture of another YLQ/S as the longer one in last comment is simply a YLQ. |
