| I was standing outside the new RNLI station at Fleetwood on Sunday 21st of October 2007, just getting ready to take a picture of the building, when I suddenly noticed an old 'orange' double-decker GM Buses Leyland Atlantean heading towards me. These things used to be a familiar site in the area where I live, and I just had to get a shot. Later I found the bus empty and parked up, and took a few more, and the results can been seen in this gallery.
The sheet in the bus window said that the bus used to operate in the Rochdale area, so I'm sure I probably travelled on it when it was in service. It was great to see this bus appear at a time when I was least expecting it, and nice to see what a wonderful restoration job had been done on it. What it was doing in Fleetwood that day, and who the folks travelling on it were I'm not sure, but I'm sure that someone out there will no doubt be able to tell me - perhaps they were having a 'dry run' ahead of the LTT event the following week at Blackpool?
