As someone who has been to many preservation events in Blackpool, I have ridden Blackpool 529 (as it was in Blackpool's fleet) quite a few times - a very good runner indeed.
Preserved Manchester City Transport Leyland Atlantean 1001 was in Timperley at around 09.30 this morning. It was in a car park surrounded by TV / Film makers support vehicles .

Is this the one you saw?

14 - 192 OTB

Similar livery, but actually a former Haslingden Corporation/Rossendale Leyland.
Beautiful bus-I can certainly understand why it might be mistaken for Birkenhead. Interesting the different treatment of the bonnet - that's the most noticeable difference.

For those of use of a certain age ( Confused ) Yelloway of Rochdale' smart AEC Reliance's with Plaxton bodywork seemed a permanent fixture across the north west fot many years.

Here is HVU 248N that has just been restored to a very high standard.

I hope it will become a regular participant on the ralley circuit over the coming months and years.
