Leyland Titan PD3A/1 Bus
What is your favourite bus of all time?
The highly acclaimed PD2 series underlined the need for a longer model and in 1956 Leyland offered the PD3 with a 30ft overall length on a 18ft 6in wheelbase. Powered by Leyland's own 9.8-litre six-cylinder engine, the PD3 model had a number of variations, offering air or vacuum brakes, synchromesh or pneumo-cyclic gearboxes and concealed or exposed radiators. The Yorkshire Traction PD3A/1 model seated 73 people in a Northern Counties body. Forward entrance 30ft models bridged the gap between the more traditional rear-entrance double-decker and rear-engined models such as the Leyland Atlantean or Daimler Fleetline.
