28802DR Leyland Titan - London Tpt

THE REAL BUS The Leyland Titan was developed in close collaboration with London Transport. The prototype entered service with LT in 1976 and after successful trials LT placed a major order for the type. First production vehicles entered service in 1978, with LT eventually building up a fleet of just over 1120 of the T class. Unfortunately for Leyland the Titan proved very unpopular with other operators. Only a handful of operators bought small trial batches, with none choosing to purchase anymore. The last of the London Titan's were withdrawn from the capitals streets in 2003, however many of the type have found their way into the fleets of independent operators up and down the country, some of these have been converted to single door layout. THE EFE MODEL The dual door version of the Titan first appeared in the range in 2002 with the single door version following in the Spring of 2007.
