This section covers former Preston Bus vehicles and the two coaches that have operated recently.

There are photos of Atlanteans 101 & 110, both of which passed to Hyndburn Transport in 1990. Then, via Ribble in 1996, they moved to Blazefield and are seen here with Lancashire United fleetnames (at Blackburn) in 2001.

Preston Atlantean 146 is seen at both Newark (23/09/96) and Lincoln (21/08/04) in Lincolnshire Road Car colours. It was sold to that operator in 1996 and was only withdrawn in autumn 2005.

Preston Bus operate private hire and excursions using the one coach in the fleet. Until 2003, a Leyland Tiger with Duple 320 C51F body was used (309) and there are views of the vehicle at Crawley (in June 2002) and after sale at Bon Chaunce, Bilsborrow. It was replaced by a Volvo B10M / Van Hool Alizee C53F vehicle from Bassetts, Stoke-on-Trent (323). There are views of this vehicle in depot (with the original registration mark of T894HBF) and at Holyhead, Edinburgh and Lincoln.

The remainder of the photos show some of the various demonstrators that have appeared at Preston Bus over the past few years
