J1942 Jersey War Tunnels
J1942 is an interesting bus! The history of this bus appears to be:
1951 (or 1949 according to the driver!) - This Leyland Tiger PS1.1 was new to Jersey Motor Company with it's original Reading body and registered J5567
? - Transferred to Guernsey and registered 2493 and later 12523
1988 or 1992? - Rebodied in Guernsey and roof mainly removed
? - Moved to the UK mainland and sold to Lothian Transport (trading as Mac Tours) operating around Edinburgh and registered YSL334
? - Acquired by Ensignbus and registered as 840XUJ
? - Returned to Jersey and acquired by Char a Banc to operate as the shuttle bus from St Hellier to the Jersey War Tunnels and registered J1942, which is where I saw it on 19 Jun 18
