The first of five trips that I managed during the Quorn Bus & Railcar Rally Weekend
This first video is on preserved Delaine Leyland Atlantean AN68 72 on one of it's shuttle runs during it's visit at the event, new to Delaine Coaches Ltd in March 1973 which was the last new Leyland decker to enter Delaine's fleet and part of a batch of five identical Northern Counties bodied Atlanteans with fellow independents Whippet of Fenstanton and OK Motor Services of Bishop Auckland
They were the first examples of the new Leyland Atlantean AN68 extended chassis making them the largest capacity vehicles in the country at the time, 72 spent it's entire life with Delaine until the arrival of new Leyland Olympians in 1995, five years later it was withdrawn from service in 2000 but was preserved and became part of the Delaine Heritage Fleet and finally in 2015 became part of the Delaine Heritage Trust collection where it now is today.
