Western National Bristol L5G Beadle 333
Some years later the L5G appeared at the July 2012 Newbury Bus Rally.
 
Western National Bristol JW6A Beadle 172
From an even earlier time, 1935, is Beadle bodied Bristol JW6A 172 (ATT922) safely stored under cover at the West of England Transport Collection at Winkleigh in August 2013. The body was originally built as a coach which was swapped for another Beadle coach body in 1946 and for this Beadle bus body in 1949!
Picture ref A8.
 
Western National Bristol H5G Bristol 137
This Bristol bodied Bristol H5G, 137 (FJ8967) of 1933 is seen at a Thames Valley & Great Western event in February 2013. The bus was new with a Brush body which was replaced during the War in 1942.

Western National Bristol FLF6G ECW 1969 & H5G Bristol 137
Seen at another TV&GWOT event in March 2016 the H5G is alongside Bristol ECW Lodekka 1969 (468FTT) of 1960. It is doubtful if they ever served the company simultaneously.
