5877 W was new to Sheffield Joint Omnibus Committee as 1177. It was in the 'C' fleet there meaning that it was actually owned by British Railways. The fleet was renumbered in the mid-sixties such that it became 3177. Following the 1968 Transport Act the BR-owned operations were taken over by National Bus Company and as result this bus became Hebble 162. It was later renumbered 658 when the Hebble fleet was put in a common numbering system with those of Yorkshire Woollen and West Riding. It passed to Calderdale JOC with most of Hebble's fleet in February 1971 and then became 307. Alongside in Halifax's Crossfield bus station is Hebble 187, a Willowbrook-bodied AEC Reliance.
