| 摘要： | The first of 7,723 Leyland Nationals to be built at Lillyhall were ten pre-production vehicles, all of them dual-door 11.3m models. Six were retained by the manufacturer, with the first of these emerging in November 1971 registered DAO 251K. Another of the six, the tenth pre-production bus, was FRM 499K, the first UK demonstrator. Two were export demonstrators, a right-hand-drive bus shipped to South Africa and DRM 590K, a left-hand-drive 36-seater exhibited at the RAI show in Amsterdam in 1972 as part of Leyland's campaign to win business from continental European cities. The other four - the third, fourth, fifth and ninth - were supplied to three National Bus Company (NBC) subsidiaries. Most appropriately, the first of these to be handed over - PP5 - went to Cumberland Motor Services in March 1972 as its 350 (ERM 35K), for use on town services in nearby Workington. PP3 and PP4 were London Country LN1 and LN2 for SuperBus services in Stevenage, while PP9 was delivered to Northern General in its dark red livery and was promptly transferred to its Sunderland District subsidiary, repainted dark blue and white and given the identity 1K (MCN 151K) in a short-lived fleetnumbering system that included the year suffix letter from the registration. |
