What is your favourite bus of all time?


Leyland Atlantean ( Ribble Motor Services ) 1959


The opening of Britain's motor network in 1959 was to bring new opportunities to coach operators and manufacturers. The Gay Hostesses brought new standards of comfort to Standerwick and Ribble express services from North-west of England to London. They were Leyland Atlanteans with lavishly-equipped Weymann bodies. The basic boxy shape of the Atlantean was cleverly disguised by the use of polished mouldings and Standerwick's livery.
