Ribble Buses inherited a pair of Optare Metroriders from Lancaster City Transport when that company ceased operations. Both these were in advertising liveries and remained in the Lancaster area unlike the Atlanteans inherited from the same source, which were transferred to Preston. These Metroriders were re-registered before passing to Stagecoach, this example; 449, K 449 YCW having been ML3, K 300 LCT in the L.C.T. fleet, was pictured on the Vale Estate returning to Lancaster city centre, the driver having not changed the destination display. This route was the regular haunt for this pair of Metroriders.
