Metro-Cammell bodied Leyland Titan PD2 42 (42ATO) made it to an early SHOWBUS at Woburn Abbey when the event relocated from Hillingdon. Now a driver trainer with Collings & Stevenson, it is seen alongside another Titan, Eastbourne's East Lancs bodied PD2A 77 (BJK677D). |

Another SHOWBUS flashback to the Hillingdon Showbus days where 42 attended for many years.

Two buses in Sheffield Bus Station. Nearest the camera is South Yorkshire PTE 1886 (JHE186W), a fairly standard MCW Metrobus, but next to it the 11.3m Leyland National has a more interesting tale to tell. The bus, 1029 (NTV729M), was new to Nottingham City Transport as 729 and deployed on the pioneering free bus services 77 and 88 in the city, in the era of the Lilac Leopard Park & Ride services. Here it was pioneering in another way, the bus had visited Reeve Burgess and a wheel chair lift was installed in the centre doorway to make it accessible for disabled, as such it was deployed on the City Clipper service as seen here. Later the bus was sold to Lincolnshire Road Car. |
