Leyland Titan PD3 / Northern Counties #294
1 may 2011 - Redhill, Surrey (GB) – Brighton Road. A further selection of buses seen on their way to Brighton on Sunday. This annual rally always brings out a lot of interesting vehicles. Here is a Southdown ‘Queen Mary’ Leyland PD3 of 1966. These were a familiar sight along the south east coast of England, although just why they were called Queen Marys I really don’t know. I remember our Qeen Mary and she wasn’t exactly a bundle of laughs. Anyway, these were very nice buses and very distinctive in appearance.
