Here is two more of PCTPG's heritage double deckers

Good evening everyone

Let me talk about two of PCTPG's heritage double deckers

We'll start with STK131T

131 - LEYLAND ATLANTEAN (ROE) "HENRY WINSTANLEY"

Summarising from the PCTPG website
- It was delivered on the 12th April 1979
- These were delivered in single door layout (as opposed to two door layout)
- It was a H43/31F (highbridge, 43 seats on upper deck, 31 seats on lower deck, front door only)
- It would get various advert wraps such as
Phoenix Assurance
- It received a black strip added in 1992
- It was withdrawn in 1994
- The bus went to North Birmingham Busways and Edwards
- The bus got purchased by the PCTPG in 2006, who have restored the bus

131-WNPG 2012
And here is a photo of one courtesy of PCTPG on a sunny day (if only we had more of them)

133 - LEYLAND ATLANTEAN (ROE) "JOHN SMEATON"
