This was one of the vehicles entered in the Greater Manchester Transport Society's Trans Lancs Historic Vehicle Rally at Heaton Park, Manchester in September 1998.
It's a 1967 Leyland Atlantean PDR1/1 and this was what programme of the event said about it:
Leyland Atlantean/Roe 1967 OBU 163F
Entered by Oldham 163 Preservation Group, Oldham
New to Oldham Corporation in 1967, where it was used for 14 years, until it was withdrawn in 1981. It was then purchased by Darrenets dance troupe where it travelled for many miles, including the Isle of Man until it was bought for preservation and restored.
On 24 January 2016 I showed a photograph of the first production Leyland Atlantean built, which was delivered to Wallasey Corporation in 1958.
