- The joint Ribble & Fishwick bus running day 2024. The preserved vintage buses of the former Ribble & Fishwick fleets are joined by guests for this years running day. Serving the towns of Preston, Leyland, & Chorley.
I do like the J Fishwick & Sons green bus. Very nice.
@@Andrewjg_89 it was a classy livery. And stayed more or less the same throughout the company's existence
The Fishwick Atlantean at the end is interesting too. The rear looks very like a DMS Fleetline
@@AndreiTupolev very much so. I believe it was a prototype for the quiet spec buses for London
Ribble and fishwick some of my favourite fleets ,the leyland tiger cub was that auto or stick I’ve just got my stick entitlement added to my licence drive any thing now 😂😂,am I right in thinking fishwick had some of the last Atlantean’s and these two were of AN69 spec and they had ECW bodywork with a B20 type bustle ,great video mate all the best
Mark 😊😊
The cub was a manual gearbox one. They did have ECW AN69 Atlanteans including the so called quiet pack with odd looking back end
@@MerseywailI saw it at the end ,what happened I’ve just done 7 night shift at CLJ and I nodded off hehe 😂,I was relaxing nearly spilt my coffee on me 😮
A great day, although I couldn’t stay long. I enjoyed a trip on Fishwick 7 to Fox Street, Preston, which I remember as the terminus for Fishwick services when I was just a lad from Chorley. Lovely also to see the postscript of the Merseyrail class 507. I was in Liverpool just a few weeks ago to ride the trains, new and old.
@@davidsutton7276 I thought I would include 507001 as good chance it was my last in service trip on it. Only the farewell tours to do . And I will probably get involved with it in preservation.
That Fishwick Tiger Cub is a rather ... distinctive shape. Is it East Lancs bodied? They did some rather ... distinctive styles.
It was bodied by Fowler who also did an Atlantean. An odd looking vehicle it was too.
