Plymouth Citycoach - in the beginning

Another blast from the past!
KAD355V was a Leyland Leopard Plaxton coach used by Plymouth Citybus for their new Plymouth Citycoach Division. I seem to remember they had two or three of these at the time which I think was the late 1980's. This picture was taken in Blackpool but not sure of the date.
These came after the Leyland National they have in a similar livery. They then started to buy one or two new Volvo coaches each year to build up a small but very smartly presented coach fleet which still survives today - albeit quite a bit reduced.
