Leyland Tiger PS2/14

This was one of the vehicles taking part in the Greater Manchester Transport Society's annual Trans Lancs Historic Vehicle Rally at Heaton Park, Manchester in September 1993.
It's a 1954 Leyland Tiger PS2/14, originally with a 6-cylinder inline 9.8 litre ohv diesel engine, though the DVLA record says that the capacity of the engine is now 9,675cc. The programme of the event said this about the vehicle:

Leyland Tiger PS2/14, East Lancs B39F, 1954                                                              CHG541
Burnley, Colne and Nelson 41
Entered by R McArdle, Consett, Co. Durham
Originally built with a rear entrance, this vehicle was converted to front entrance for one man operation. It was withdrawn in 1974 and sold to the present owner in 1990.
