Bedford SB The coach business was established by Herbert Roderick Richmond in 1920 and latterly operated a fleet of mostly
Setra coaches. In 1986 Epsom Coaches entered the bus market after
deregulation. In 2003, Epsom Coaches rebranded its bus division as
Quality Line and repainted its vehicles from their traditional cream and brown into allover red to comply with
Transport for London requirements. It operated a staff shuttle service for the
Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust, between
Epsom,
St Helier and Sutton Hospitals. These were in a plain silver livery. It also operated bus services in Surrey, both commercial and for the county council using the silver livery. From March 2012 Epsom Coaches operated a
London Victoria Coach Station to
Wolverhampton service under contract to
National Express. On 19 April 2012 Epsom Coaches was purchased by the
RATP Group. In June 2017 as part of a restructure of RATP's operations, Epsom Coaches ceased trading with the remaining operations continuing under the
Quality Line brand. ==In popular culture==
