1948 Leyland Tiger PS1/1

This was one of the entrants in the Greater Manchester Transport Society's Trans Lancs Historic Vehicle Rally at Heaton Park, Manchester in September 1996.
It's a 1948 Leyland Tiger PS1/1 one of 13 vehicles provided new to Southdown Motor Services in March 1948 with fleet number 1303. It has a 7.4 litre 6-cylinder diesel engine and a Park Royal C32R body with sliding roof. It's chassis 471195, was in service with Southdown until 1959, and is apparently the only survivor from that batch of 13 vehicles.
