Sheffield United Tours 283, 3283WB, an AEC Reliance MU3RV with Burlingham Seagull C41C body, new in 1958.
A centre-entrance Seagull with the original front profile, but new in 1958, was quite a rarity as most by then were front entrance versions of the Seagull V type with the flatter front end. It resembles the earler lighterweight Seagull III type but has the Mk. V's curved rear corner windows, so maybe a bit of a hybrid as far as mark numbers are concerned.
