Leyland National 51, The gathering of the buses, and the mass start up of Nationals 

There really isn't anything better than a leyland national keep up the good work everyone from John and Nora here in kidlington in oxfordshire

This was exactly the routine of starting up the school buses in Nottingham as late of 2003. Bellamy’s Coaches, Lowes Coaches and Dunn-Line all serving schools. Buses would pile in to the terminus and 5 minutes before leaving at 3.25 the cold starts began. All drivers would be lighting cigarettes, foot to the floor until that blaring air warning died. Typically it would come back on at least once so down again went the foot, drowning out the alarm again.The clag was otherworldly.

7020 looks amazing!
