The oldest 'National' in attendance at the Leyland National 50 event. New in February 1973, it was the fourth Mark 1 vehicle delivered to Cumberland Motor Services. GRM 353L is seen here in the grounds of the former Leyland National factory at Lillyhall, now in part occupied by Eddie Stobart haulage. After 49 years, it has returned to where it was built. I travelled on this vehicle to the nearby Lakes College from Whitehaven before collecting my car and driving to the factory to take a final series of shots. This photograph was taken during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic of 2020/21/22.
