Hi all,
I was on a #409 from Royton to Rochdale yesterday (33703 in anyone is interested) and in a yard by the M62 there is a British Airways Leyland National. I had a quick look on the forum to see if it has been mentioned but I could not find a reference to it. The question is, does anybody know what the reg of this bus is?

Thanks in advance...

I last seen this vehicle last November during a visit to the depot of Routemaster Buses in Nantwich but I'm not sure who owns it these days.

A line up on the site of the former Walton garage today, to mark 25 years since closure.

Funny how I remember the first day after on The Sunday when on the way home from my paper Round when 1692 turned up for my 20. At the time I thought it was strange to have that bus on there, didn't know Walton was closing, wasn't long before I realised though.

As Ron posted elsewhere on the Forum, former Chester City Transport Plaxton Pointer bodied Dennis Dart J52 EDM made its debut at the Llangollen Classic Transport Weekend in North Wales over the weekend, it was joined by preserved Warrington Borough Transport Carlisle bodied Dennis Dart H842 NOC on the free shuttle between Corwen and Glyndyfrdwy Station.

Just seen 1898 making its way down Southport Road, nice to see it moving and certainly wasn't expecting to see it.
