1948 Leyland Tiger PS1

This vehicle took part in the Greater Manchester Transport Society's Trans Lancs Historic Vehicle Rally at Heaton Park, Manchester in September 1995.

It's a 1948 Leyland Tiger with a Brush body, and was provided new to Burnley, Colne and Nelson.  It was converted to front entrance for one man operation in 1960 and purchased by the then present owner in 1974 who reconverted it to original rear entrance during restoration. The note about it in the programme of the event reads as follows:
