It is unusual to see displays of buses at North Weald, usually just a line of doubledeckers and a line of singledeckers. In 2010, these four London DMS liveried Fleetlines were parked together, from the left we have DMS132 (EGP132J), DMS868 (GHM868N), DMS2357 (OJD357R) and DM1052 (GHV52N). All are Park Royal bodied, except DMS868, whose body is by MCW.

This vehicle, displayed at Showbus 98, is preserved Park Royal bodied DMS136 (EGP136J) and is seen amidst the London bus display.

An interesting blind adorns DMS1868 (GHM868N) as it arrives for SHOWBUS in 2010. The bus was something of a survivor in London, exceeding the normal seven years service by an extra thirteen, even crossing the privatisation boundary and ending its last days as a school bus with Leaside Buses. It did get overhauled at Aldenham in 1981 and spent most of the rest of its time as a training unit until entering preservation in 1997.

A more conventional display is seen on the MCW bodied Fleetline at Duxford two years later.
