Details: KPA101K was one of the very first Leyland National buses built, only a couple getting K-suffix registrations. It was delivered to London Country Bus Services as their LN1 in 1972, though it carried a yellow livery rather than the standard green. This was soon adapted with blue trim for use on SuperBus routes in Stevenage. In 1981 (some sources give 1978) it was converted into a mobile engineering training vehicle, and given the green and yellow livery shown here. Its use appears to have been limited and it was dumped at Crawley when photographed in December 1987. It is believed to have been sold for scrap not long afterwards. Alongside is another of the early LN buses, LN7, as shown in the next photo.
