Waited years for these two liveries to be photographed side by side and an open day at Glasgow's Knightswood garage (now a housing development) on 2nd July 1994 provided the opportunity. Both buses are well known, Glasgow FYS999 and Halifax BCP671. I wonder if Halifax fans look at GCT buses and think, somethings not quite right.

An impressive selection of preserved Halifax buses at the Huddersfield Rally in Greenhead Park on a glorious 11th August 1991 (...almost the glorious twelfth!). The nearest is Leopard 35, in the middle is Tony Blackman's famous Regent III 277 and beyond is Richard's Halifax PD2 43, which I don't think he owned then.

ACP391 started out life Halifax Corporation 342, a Leyland Titan PD2/1 with Leyland H30/26R body, renumbered 107 in 1952. Suffering roof damage in a low bridge incident near West Vale in 1963 it was converted to open-top training bus/tree lopper 418. Withdrawn in 1967 it was heavily modified to represent an original Corporation tram of 1898 to take part in the department's 70th Anniversary celebrations in 1968, clearly influenced by a similar conversion carried out to a PD2 by Yorkshire Woollen District a few years previously.
