The green buses were the 'country' buses (distinct from the red city buses) although I haven't found a reference to one that looks just like this one.

SteveA ◊ 2007-08-27 01:41	It's green because it's a Liverpool Corporation Leyland Atlantean PDR1/1, as you say fordtwo, MCW bodied. L501 (501KD) was built in 1962.
