WMPTE livery, route 22/32/33. Incoming on right also WMPTE, destination possibly Rednal (which is south of Birmingham along A38 Bristol Rd - I think the route was 62).

MCW bodied Leyland Fleetline FE30ALR, part of a batch delivered new to WMPTE throughout 1976.

Any earlier batches?? My dim and dusty memory is that these - or similar - could have K/L plates so 72/73 onwards???

Yes - it's more likely to be one of the EOF-L batch of Park Royal bodied Daimler Fleetline CRG6LXs delivered new throughout 1973. Many thanks to Lady Wulfrun on Flickr for helping to identify this one. :)
