Ribble Motor Services had an L Reg. Leyland Leopard with the same “M Type” Alexander bodywork,
whether it was built to “Night Running Spec”, I do not know.It led quite a chequered career, ending up being retained (and scrapped) in lieu of default on payment for recovery

She was based at Hulme hall road for along time. Her regular driver was Chalky White. He would fight anyone to get her on his duties. later he bought her and his company was called Sports Tours. Not a big success from what i gather.Prob why she was scrapped. I believe that Chalky is still around today. Can anyone confirm ? .
