SUA 301M working for Oldham Community Transport had an interesting history. It was new to Leeds City Transport in poppy red livery, as it was apparently diverted from an NBC order. Although delivered to Leeds City Transport more than three months before the PTE came officially into being, it was immediately painted in firstly a trial livery and then PTE verona green and buttermilk and numbered 1301. It remained the only National in the PTE fleet until some National 2s arrived several years later.

It was converted for wheelchair use by WYPTE and was thus an ideal vehicle for Oldham Community Transport to purchase. It is seen here at Binn Green, above Greenfield.
