On the buses

An old Leyland PD3 at the top of Fargate.

I was just going into town on my lunch break and saw these big ol' buses at the top of Fargate. I'm by no means a bus spotter but as they're not usually there I thought I'd use them as today's photo.

There was a sign in the window that said the following about this particular bus:

This is a Roe bodied Leyland PD3 and was delivered to the Sheffield Transport Department in 1959, this vehicle mainly working on city suburban routes.

The buses were owned and maintained by the South Yorkshire Preservation Group, they keep the group going by donating money from their wages every week and hiring out the vehicles for weddings, day trips etc.
