B15-01 LEYLAND TITAN PROTOTYPE TRADE PLATES 2188B CHORLEY OLD ROAD BOLTON SLIDE DATED 09.79 (3) B15-01
I hope everyone is keeping well and staying safe.
Still deep in the lockdown due to this Coronavirus, Easter 2020 had a very strange feel to it.
It is so ironic that its been such a gloriously sunny fortnight and unable to go out and enjoy it.
Plus point, the todo list is shrinking fast........
So something to help the bus enthusiast colleagues occupy the time for those who are furloughed at home.
A rather battered looking Leyland prototype Titan B15-01 is seen on trade plates 2188B undertaking its regular (weekly ??? Wednesdays ???) run which brought it to Bolton down the A666 Blackburn Road, around the ring road and back up the B6226 Chorley Old Road and is seen approaching Bobs Smithy on the way to Horwich.
Dull day, none too clever camera, a Praktica, so theory top of Chorley Old Road where speed will be down to a crawl. Not a chance ! So not the best of shots. But notice all the equipment on board.
From a slide dated September 1979
The original shot although some else claims to have the same shot ......
