Myself and the g/f went to Manchester yesterday for a days spotting. On route at approx 7.30am on the M6 (Southbound) we saw the following beast slowly making its way. I thought at first it was one of the old Speke airport coaches and by the reg I knew it was from Wallasey . Well, this 71 year old beast looked great, and ambled down the M6 and out of sight, great to see it and of particular interest to me was its life after service use, when the it was converted as a mobile police control room. I am sure I saw this bus back in the late 60's early 70's with my Dad who was like me, a bus enthusiast. I hope this is of interest to some Bob Attachments:

Bl**dy Magnificent!
It has so much character compared to today's 'jelly-mould' vehicles! Thanks for sharing!
