A 1979 Leyland National bus, owned by Workington Transport Heritage Group, on display at the Energus Site, location for the Group's 'Built In Workington' event, to celebrate buses constructed at the former British Leyland factory, a few hundred metres away. This vehicle also undertook regular services along nearby roads as far as Whitehaven, via Distington, on the day. Further details of the vehicle, and indeed the Trust can be found at http://www.wtht.co.uk/leyland-nationals.html
