‘Scene’ in open top service, MBE 613R on Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’

MBE 613R a Leyland Fleetline FE30AGR / Roe, a standard covered top double decker was delivered to ‘Grimsby Cleethorpes Transport’ (GCT) as No. 113 in 1977.

 

‘Stagecoach’ took over ‘GCT’ in 1993  at which time it became No. 15513. 

 

In 1994 the bus was converted to open top for use in Cleethorpes and re-painted into the then current ‘Stagecoach’ ‘stripes’ livery. 

 

The more recent ‘swoops’ livery was applied in 2003.

 

2005 saw the bus transferred to Chesterfield as part of the ‘Heritage’ fleet where it remained until purchased for preservation in 2017.

 

For a more complete history of this bus, I thoroughly recommend that you visit www.gct113.com
