...but I was wrong! I've been advised this was actually ex SELNEC EX1 (PNF941J) and therefore a 1971 Leyland Atlantean PDR1 with Northern Counties body, not a 1973 Atlantean AN68 with Park Royal body! EX1 is owned by theSELNEC Preservation Society |

Ep 2.01 - in this the bus is a murder scene and therefore 3 stars at least.... |

I would also say 3 stars as it is a crime scene in ep 2.01. |

Northern Counties were based in Wigan, Greater Manchester. They are usually identifiable by the air vent on the top of the windows. |
