This appliance is actually CRE254Y. I'm amazed by Kerry County's procurment policy of using surplus Staffordshire appliances. When I was there in 2003 the amount of old Staffordshire appliances made me feel old indeed remembering them first time round in the UK. Still, shows that we built them to last back then.

CRE 254Y: Dennis RS 133/Dennis. Brand-new WrL delivered to Burton-upon-Trent in 1983. Then to WrT Burton in 1985. Then to Lichfield WrL in 1987. Then to Stone WrL 1989. Then Stone WrT in 1990. Then a short spell as a reserve stored at Uttoxeter in 1994, before being put on a Kerry-bound ferry in around 1995.

Awesome applainces. CRE 253-257Y: The original batch of five of the many RSs and three SSs bought by Staffordshire betwen 1983 & 1995. And regarded by many that used them, as the best.
