Daimler Fleetline Bus 1960 (Warrington Corporation)

Daimler Fleetline 1960

What is your favourite bus of all time?

Following the Leyland Atlantean, Daimler were hot on Leyland's heels with their Fleetline chassis, introduced in 1960. The Fleetline used the familiar Gardner 6LX engine mounted transversely at the rear, similar to the Atlantean, but offered a true lowheight layout thanks to a dropped-centre rear axle. This proved of interest to bus operators with low bridge problems and Daimlers, traditionally regarded as municipal buses, soon became evident in a much wider range of fleets.
