GMT 5947, PJA917, a 1960 Leyland PD2/Longwell Green ex-Stockport 347. 5947 outlasted the remainder of this batch by many years and was the only one (apart from driver trainers) to receive the orange livery.
By this time in its last week or so of service, this picture demonstrates the degree of body roll to which these buses were prone.
