Ribble Leyland Leopard 211 was a bus that I drove many times during my 2 years
as a bus driver in the late 1960s. It is seen here leaving Wigan town centre on the
326 route to Crawford, a little village between Skelmersdale and St Helens.
The 2nd picture of 211 is at Wigan Bus Station, and its route indicator is showing
333 Dangerous Corner, which is about 2 miles west of M6 Junction 27.
Both pictures will be approx. 1970/71, the “Ribble” fleetname is now in lower case
lettering. In picture 1, the bus looks like it has had a repaint. Ray Smyth.
