First open-top bus to use Le Shuttle?

The picture left, taken on a rather grey 13th August 1995, shows our 1964 open top bus 406 emerging from one of the Euro-tunnel Shuttle vehicles in France.

According to staff on site, 406 is believed to have been the first open top bus in preservation to have made the journey 'under the sea' using the then newly built tunnels. The bus was on an outing for family and friends to St Omer - for Sunday lunch!
