46. LFM316LFM316 was an ex-Crosville Leyland PS1/1 with Weymann DP35F body, which entered their fleet in May 1950 as KA240. Part of a batch of 35 (KA225-259) diverted from Midland General, they started life in bus livery, but received cream coach livery with a green waistband in 1952; at some stage they acquired a half cream/half green livery. In May 1958, the batch was renumbered ETE925-959, and in January 1962, they were again renumbered – this time becoming STE925-959 – and reverted to bus livery (all green). LFM316, seen here, was withdrawn in 1964 and passed to Northumberland Whinstone Quarries of Hexham in November of that year, along with sister vehicles LFM301 and LFM324.
