This is probably one instance where the appearance may have benefited by extending the advert onto the windows using contra-vision film! (Eric Wilson) Front bottom: As recorded in M&T 504 , The Chesterfield 123 Group has acquired former Trent Leyland Leopard/Alexander T-type PRA109R. The vehicle is shown in 'Silver Fox' livery at Tideswell on its first outing with the Group.
