This Northern Counties bodied bus is visually typical of the mid 1980s deliveries to GM Buses. However, a closer look around the back end reveals the emergency exit is where the engine bay should be, as in fact this is a rare underfloor engined Volvo Citybus. Wigan depot had a trio of these buses, as well as a pair of Dennis Falcons and some Ailsas. None of these types were bought in quantity.
