The interior picture is of a old Leyland single decker, it is the same type used in the film "Whistle down the wind".
The bus was based at Burnley and took children to school at Clitheroe, picking up all the way from Blacko to Downham. During the day it was left at Clitheroe and the crew came back to Burnley passenger, the afternoon shift would do the reverse journey.
It was while it was left at Clitheroe that they used it in the making of the film.
I drove it once or twice but it was after the film was made so I never got chance to be a star.
Very interesting pictures, what type of wagon is that in picture 6, it looks a bit Army, but the wood sides are a bit curious ?
