 A coach attracting much attention at SHOWBUS in 2005 was this Volvo B12B with Caetano coachwork operated on behalf of Virgin Trains by National Express. NXVC3 (FH05URP) was purchased for the rail-link service linking Watford Junction Station with Heathrow Airport. These full sized coaches replaced the Plaxton Cheetah bodied Mercedes midicoaches used previously.

Alongside is another National Express coach in a slightly unusual NX livery for another rail-link service, this time to Woking. The Plaxton bodied B10M was new to Cambridge Coach Services as 322 (S322VNM). |
