Citybus, I think. Still no help to me, far too modern. |

For the windscreen and the rear upper deck emergency exit, this can be a Roe body like the picture below. https://www.flickr.com/photos/johnmhague/8562205160 The front view for having for a looking at the windscreen... https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8521/8561100025_7f820a90e8_b.jpg For the shorter window at the end on the upper deck suggest this is a 30 feet (9.1M) bus. Chassis can be a Leyland Atlantean AN68 or Leyland / Daimler Fleetline. Not easy to guess the chassis model but the body builder may be more easier to guess... Or name it as unknown Roe?! -- Last edit: 2018-07-23 22:06:37 |

Good detective work! The only suggestion I can make is that the Oldham location is in Greater Manchester, so a sold-off orange Greater Manchester fleet bus to a small local Oldham firm is a reasonable possibility. GM had at least one Leyland Atlantean AN68D/1R (with Northern Counties body). And various Fleetlines. And no doubt lots of other things as well - we have several orange GM buses scattered in our collection, but I don't know makes and models. |

Citibus ran a number of Atlanteans from various sources, also a pair of rarer Northern Counties bodied Bristol VRTLLs ex Reading,which had very squared off bodies. My money would be on an Atlantean. A quick Flickr search illustrates: https://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/citibus/ |

It is almost certainly a Citibus ex South Yorkshire Roe bodied Atlantean, The opening vent on the rear emergency exit, the blank final bay (before the half bay) and the seats are all SYPTE spec |
