Subject: SELNEC Southern 5027 (OBU 177F))
Chassis: Leyland Panther PSUR1/1
Body: Marshall B48D
Location: Oldham, Union Street
Date: 1970

This bus carries no evidence yet of SELNEC ownership and still carries its Oldham fleetnumber 177. It is passing the premises of Longworth Rannard,who I believe were the supplier of Oldham’s crimson paint until the change to pommard, when it was obtained instead from Williamson’s of Ripon.
