This vehicle took part in the Greater Manchester Transport Society's Trans Lancs Historic Vehicle Rally at Heaton Park, Manchester in September 1996, though it isn't listed in the programme of the event.
It's a 1970 Leyland Tiger Cub, apparently the last one built, which was operated by the John Fishwick and Company of Leyland, Lancs from new. The 44 seat body was built by local body-builders W H Fowler, a company owned by Fishwicks. In 1978 the vehicle went to Phillips Motor Services of Holywell until 1984, when it was acquired by Eagles and Crawford of Gwernymynydd.
