I've copied over my text from the other thread.

In addition to this, there was an OK service. I'm guessing one of the services was contracted and the other a competing service, but we had the choice of an OK Alexander bodied 'something or other' or the Oly on one route.

The 194 and its Lynxes ran parallel with the National Mk1's.

Lucky to get either of them to stop, usually far too full!

On the rare occasion we did get on, it was faces squashed to the front windscreen.

The driver always made sure we paid for the privilege!

After a bit of digging, I think the OK Alexander 'something or other' was MCL933P - or something of that ilk.

Photos I've found on Flickr of it in OK livery, tie it in with my school days.

It had quite an interesting history 'pre-OK' by the looks of it!
