GMTE Leyland Atlaneen I think A706LOC 4706 in the Film Spike Island set in 1990 but created in 2012 that Bus was in the Manchester Livery of the time so must be in Preservation. Also Featured is a Merc Coach that has a Merc V10 engine can't remember the reg was in a Red, White, Orange/Brown Striped Livery I think.

Bit of Nostalgia and not so much on TV but I guess they did release a Video for it in the Three Lions 98 Version Music Video there is a Ralph's Coach Company I Don't know if they are still around assuming it is from down that the England fans travel to France in. Looks like a Volvo/Van Hool the Germans have a similar coach to.

#472
McDonald And Dodds on ITV this evening is about a murder on a First Bath bus, plenty of bus and depot shots.

There doesn't appear to be any working CCTV on the bus in the show, it would make the story a lot shorter if there was!
