246 was, and is, a survivor, running into SELNEC days. It was twenty-two years old when it was painted into the pommard and devon cream livery from the crimson seen here in July 1968. 1334x1271 0041.jpg |
466 was bought from Sheffield and was the last of this particular quartet to survive, seen here in March 1969. 1436x1200 0094.jpg |
Tiger Cub 111 gained fame by making a trip to Kranj in Yugoslavia (Oldham's twin town). This shot in the garage in February 1966 is before it acquired an AA badge on the front, a relic of that trip. 1406x1120 0109.jpg |
East Lancs-bodied Atlantean 132 was brand-new when seen here in February 1966. This was the first sighting of the new pommard and devon cream livery. 1406x998 0110.jpg |

Panther 177 goes through the site of the Manchester Street roundabout at the end of the by-pass. Construction work was still taking place and the following day traffic followed the roundabout and traffic could no longer run on this bit of raod, April 1970. 1352x1025 0185.jpg |
Heading down Manchester Street on the same day as 177 is Atlantean 170. 1358x1023 0186.jpg |
