Three generations of AEC Regent spanning thirteen years with veteran 106 from 1933 alongside RT-type 218 from 1946, with rebodied 156 from 1937 on the left.

106 was one of the last of the tramway-replacement Regents to remain in service and was not withdrawn until 1955, only three years earlier than 218. 156 was withdrawn in 1956.
