Ah yes, they use the 5.9 6 cylinder whereas the stagecoach ones use the 3.9 4 cylinder version, my bad. Still a bit wimpy compared to the 7.6 used by the volvo B10 but it still packs a punch in the lighter and smaller bus. Weren't the BlueBirds a 5.9 Leyland engine? And any reports on whether there is still one left at Gillmoss?
