Category: London Buses
Title: Leyland B15 prototype entered service on route 24
Details: One of several Leyland B15 prototypes entered service on route 24 on this date. The type was intended as the double-deck equivalent of the Leyland National, but was tailored to London use. Later dubbed the Titan, London Transport went on to buy 1,125 in the early 1980s, but the type did not sell well elsewhere and was eventually supplanted by the simpler Olympian model.
