A coach, which started life in the 1930s, will become a new exhibit at this Lancashire Motor Museum!
A historic 'East Kent' coach has travelled 300 miles north to the British Commercial Vehicle Museum in Lancashire. The single-deck luxury coach, which started life in 1938 as a 'Leyland Titan' double-deck bus, will become a prominent new exhibit at the renowned museum located in Leyland. The vehicle had a varied life while in service with East Kent.
In this case, the new body was constructed by J C Beadle Coaches of Dartford. Today, the Beadle Group successfully operates with multi-franchise car distributors. After retirement from service, the coach was maintained and used by the 'M&D and East Kent Bus Club. The British Commercial Vehicle Museum has a rich history itself, dating back to the 1930s, and was formerly part of Leyland Motors as well as being part of the town’s motoring history.
