Daimler CVG6

This bus took part in the Greater Manchester Transport Society's Trans Lancs Historic Vehicle Rally at Heaton Park, Manchester in September 1995.
It's a 1956 Daimler CVG6 with a Northern Counties H58C body and with what the DVLA record says is an 8.6 litre diesel engine. It was entered for the event by D.A. Jones of Burnley and was originally operated by the Stalybridge, Hyde, Mossley and Dukinfield Transport and Electricity Board, SHMD for short.

On 19 June 2016 I showed a photograph of this bus at the 1996 Trans Lancs Rally, and the programme notes in 1995 were the same as those I reported on that occasion.
