FBY 048 was a 1978 Bristol LH6L, fitted with Plaxton Supreme C45F bodywork, new as WJN 22S to Boon, Boreham, Essex. Imported in 1986, and always well presented, it was withdrawn from service in 2011 after receiving major accident damage when an apparent failure of the brakes forced the driver to collide with stationary cars before hitting a wall. Thankfully, only a couple of people were injured, not seriously. Times of Malta article here.
