Single Deckers And Coaches

LEYLAND LEOPARD

Y TYPE. C49F. The Fife area seemed to be a late convert to the Leopard ordering it's first lot in 1970. All Leyland Leopards were ordered by Alexander (Fife).

AY TYPE. C49F.

AYS TYPE. B53F. Fife's first 'Y' type of body with the short bus bay windows. I used to love driving them. Just imagine how great they could have been if they had power steering in them.

Photograph HERE of GSO92V (NPE92) on hire from Northern Bluebird. It would have been allocated to Cowdenbeath depot as it is seen on the 19 service at Dunfermline bus station.

GSO80V - GSO84V WERE SECOND HAND BUSES WHICH WERE NEW TO NORTHERN IN 1980.

## THESE BUSES CAME FROM RIBBLE IN 1992 BUT I BELIEVE THEY WERE ORIGINALLY MIDLAND SCOTTISH BUSES.

AT TYPE. DP49F. New in October and December1982.

M TYPE. C42F layout with reclining seats and a toilet. Ordered in 1975. Used primarily on express services between Fife and London. These coaches were initially painted in Fife's red and cream livery, but were repainted into corporate blue and white from 1976.

#HSG566N - FPE66 WAS NEW IN MARCH 1975 TO SCOTTISH OMNIBUSES AS XH377 WITH A C42FT LAYOUT. IT CAME TO FIFE IN JUNE 1979 BUT LASTED ONLY 6 MONTHS BEFORE BEING MOVED ON TO NORTHERN IN DECEMBER 1979.

DUPLE DOMINANT 1 & 2. All ordered in 1978 with C49F layout. They were delivered with a mixture of MK1 and MK2 bodies in no order. Photographic evidence needed to determine if MK1 or 2.
