I think MTT have a Liverpool example. ERG 52 resides at Wirral Transport museum and there is a late example of a Crosville SRG preserved. Also several CRGs.There was a company I think in Yorkshire that used/preserved a number of Crosville REs back in the late 90s including ex Heswall SRG 113 and ERG 594, both of which were fantastic buses but I suspect both are now long since dead.

There is a beautifully-preserved RELH with ECW coach bodywork in white National livery knocking about. it's an OTA-G example.

Two former PMT RESLs are also in preservation and look very good.

Don't think it was PMP Mic, think it was Terminus Productions, a company who had a spell of doing Bus Vids in the mid 90's. I know the footage you're talking about though because it also includes Routemasters on the 143 as well.

There is a former SHMD Northern Counties bodied example somewhere making progress, Keighley, I think!!!! NCME bodied RE's were fairly rare with only BCN and SHMD having them as far as I am aware.
