    The 1956 coach (bus over here...) is really especially beautiful. Are any of the vehicles in running condition?
    Several of the vehicles are kept roadworthy and attend special events. I was told that the 1956 coach is occasionally used to provide day trips for the museum's volunteer staff.

    Thanks for the photos, I especially liked the one of the Leyland Tiger Cub bus, it was built the same year I was born.

    Kind Regards,

    David.

    The Popemobile looks more comfortable to ride in than the 1917 Leyland R.A.F. lorry with solid steel rims.

    That's a ride I want to go on. Don't know why, but I love old buses.

    Love the kilted dummy with the lorry. How cool would it be to have a dummy dressed like that in your entry hall or living room?

    Or maybe a wall sticker thing like they do with athletes now days

    The last time I saw the Popemobile was in Bellahouston Park, Glasgow back in 1982. Thanks for the memory.
