Entering the West Yorkshire Coach Station in Wellington Street, Leeds is Yorkshire Traction, Barnsley 897, CHE852, a Leyland PS2/3 with a Windover C32F body which had been new in May 1950.
Later the chassis was rebuilt to become Yorkshire Traction 1187, THE187, with a Northern Counties H35/28F body in August 1960. The Windover body was sold, and was reportedly converted to FC33F before being fitted in 1960 to JUP 868, a Foden PVSC6 with Dan Smith, Darfield, whose business was later acquired by Yorkshire Traction in March 1962, but JUP868 was not operated.
