Midland Red Motorway Coaches 

These beauties were a common sight on the ( very short ) M. 1. motorway in the early 1960s.

whilst a driver at digbeth in the 70,s I was given one of these to drive with a conductor to furnace end in service, billy goodwin the union rep went balmy cos I hadn,t been typed on it, the brakes were crap tho, but the most dangerous bus I ever drove, was a leyland national.
