11 is a
Leyland National with B44F bodywork. It was delivered new to the SYPTE in
February 1979. It was delivered in NBC green livery with SYPTE fleet names
applied.
No. 11 is
certainly the vehicle in the collection that has carried the most liveries. Its
carried SYPTE brown and cream, SYT, Sheafline, and Mainline to name a few. It
has also changed hands almost as many times in preservation.
It is a very
important vehicle locally, as it is the only vehicle that can be correctly
painted in a number of lost operator liveries and is the only surviving Mk1
Leyland National that was delivered new to the SYPTE.
To
be fair the vehicle is in a bit of a state, but all the parts to restore
it are there. Hopefully one day 11 can join the other residents and be a runner
again.
