 Eastbourne's Lion was a welcome exhibit at SHOWBUS in 2003. How many people spotted the placing alongside a Leyland Lion of a different generation is not clear. It may well be that there as many of both generations of Lion currently in existence. The modern underfloor engined Lions were a short term model delivered in small numbers to Nottingham and some Scottish Bus Group fleets, totalling 32 in all. |
 Cedars Alexander bodied Leyland Lion underfloor engined doubledecker 1 (E941CDS) was new as Nottingham 396 (E941CDS) and later passed to Chester as their 18. Unfortunately it lost its roof in a lowbridge accident, which probably terminated its life. |
 The Eastbourne Lion returned to SHOWBUS and is seen here arriving at the last Duxford gathering in 2014.

 The beautiful grounds of Woburn Abbey were the backdrop to the Lion at the following year's SHOWBUS.
