I’ve always thought those Leylands always looked so miserable, yet with a tiny bit of tweaking they could look so much happier & enticing to ride on:

I always thought that BMMOs contemporary with the Titans looked even glummer! :laughing:

EDIT to add picture of one!

1951 Guy Arab with Willowbrook bodywork. Might just be me but there’s something strangely attractive about that design.

A superb drawing by James Dean, Eddie. The B.B.M.S. is Bamber Bridge Motor Services, which was acquired
by Ribble Motor Services in the late 1960s. One of the few buses that came into the Ribble fleet from B.B.M.S.
was 747 EUS, the original Albion Lowlander with Alexander bodywork, As far as I am aware, it ended its days
at the Wigan depot of Ribble.

Cheers, Ray.

The colours of these coaches remind me of the livery of Glasgow Corporation bus fleet.
