And if it was a Buffalo, hopefully the chap was doing the world a service by cutting it up! Could also be a Comet, maybe even a late Beaver perhaps? -- Last edit: 2007-05-17 21:31:12

Leyland even loaned 4 brand new Marathons for a year, painted up in fleet colours, to compensate for the Buffaloes. And these were L12s, not even the hideous 500-Series.
