11 april 2010 - Cobham, Surrey (UK). We move forward ten years to 1958 and the opening of the first British motorway. The huge Midland Red company (as it says on the box) operated red buses throughout central England and had its own bus construction works, turning out many vehicles of very advanced design. This C5 coach was specially built for the motorway service from Birmingham to London and was easily capable of over 120km/hour.
