Reeve Burgess

Reeve Burgess

Reeve Burgess was a bus body manufacturer based in Pilsley, North East Derbyshire in the United Kingdom. It was a subsidiary of Plaxton from 1980 until its closure in 1991. [Millar, Alan (1992) "Bus & Coach Recognition" : Ian Allan Ltd., ISBN 0-7110-2060-4]

Reeve Burgess bodied some Leyland chassis including the Cub, Swift and three rare short wheelbase Tigers, but is probably best known for the Pointer body on Dennis Dart chassis, and the Beaver minibus on Mercedes-Benz chassis (amongst others). Both of these were badged as Reeve Burgess products until its demise, whereafter they were badged as Plaxton products. This process resulted in some Dennis Dart/Plaxton Pointers receiving both Plaxton and Reeve Burgess body numbers, in a similar manner to some Northern Counties vehicles.
