Portsmouth Corporation 287 - XTP287L
Leyland "Atlantean" AN68 built 1973
Alexander Dual Door 78 Seat Double-Decker
Owned by: Unknown owner now a Transport CAFE
287 has had a very colourful career, having sported many liveries, survived several changes of ownership and
is the only surviving bus of its batch. It carried an all-over blue-based livery for some time which commemorated
the 40th Anniversary of D-Day in 1984. It has received a great deal of attention to sort out a host of problems
and has recently been returned to running order once more. Sold for continued preservation via ebay, but is now reported
as having been converted for use as a transport cafe.
