LEYLAND OLYMPIAN

These first 10 Olympians were ordered by Fife Scottish in 1983. They had an H45/32F layout with a lowheight ALEXANDER 'RL' type bodywork. They were Fife's first buses with the 'R' type of body.

The next batch of Olympians were ordered by Fife Scottish 9 years later in June 1992 with an H47/32F layout. Bodywork was again ALEXANDER 'RL' type. I don't know if I really liked the Olympians or not. For some reason, I never really liked the brakes on them. (They 'binded' quite a lot).
