This Alexander Royale bodied Volvo Olympian decker was a new purchase and is seen on layover under the railway arches in Stockport, by the Bus Station.

A vehicle type which became as ubiquitous as the London DMS is the Manchester style Northern Counties bodied Fleetline or Atlantean. Many were sold out of service by Greater Manchester in the early days of deregulation. This Atlantean AN68, former GMPTE 8639 (ANA639Y), has not strayed far, however, finding a new home with Finglands. It is seen here near its destination U.M.I.S.T, the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology.
