Leeds 719, MNW719, one of twenty Crossley DD42/7s with Crossley H30/26R bodies, new in 1949, arrives in Leeds Central Bus Station.
It appears as if the driver is attempting to engage reverse gear to park next to the Roe bodied A.E.C. Regent III. 719 had been new in February 1949 and was withdrawn on 30th May 1962, passing to W. North (P.V.) Ltd. (dealers), Sherburn-in-Elmet in December 1962. It passed later to an unknown breaker.
